"You're running on guts. On fumes. Your muscles twitch. You throw up. You're delirious. But you keep running because there's no way out of this hell you're in, because there's no way you're not crossing the finish line. It's a misery that non-runners don't understand." - Martine Costello
And that's just running down Franklin Street this week! Many are heading North to Chi Town this weekend to take on the 2nd City, I have listed below the one's who have sent me their bib numbers, should be a big group and a good time. Good Luck to everyone!!
Another big race weekend at home as well, Good Luck to all doing the Y Evansville 1/2 Marathon Sunday, should be a good weekend.
For those skipping the 1/2 and continuing training I've included a 12 mile route staying away from the festival, looks like if you turn left on Vann to Bellemeade it would make it closer to 8 miles, hope it helps, have a good start to the taper.
Congrats this week go to Michelle Walker for pulling another Double!! New Hampshire on Saturday and Maine on Sunday, the only double I plan this weekend is a double dip cone! Great Job Michelle!
See you next Saturday.
