Saturday, August 8th

"Let me go on...Like I Blister in the Sun, Let me go onnn"...I mean, um, sorry got mixed up there, I mean Congrats to everyone who ran the "Blister in the Sun Marathon" on Sunday, and to everyone who did the "Owensville Watermelon Run", and "Band on the Run" Saturday morning and what had to be one of the cooler "Night Flights" on Saturday night! Lot of great runs and age group awards! 

A big Congrats to all the finishers of the Southern Indiana Tri Team 70.3 on Saturday, that's just strong!

If you haven't picked up a copy of the latest Runners World magazine you need to do so, this month features an article on our own "Mom of 6", Michelle Walker, Great job Michelle!

The YMCA Half Marathon Series kicks off this Saturday with the 5/10k race. Good Luck to everyone on the first leg of three!

Good Luck also to those doing the Fox on the run 5k Friday night in Henderson, and on Saturday the Schweizer Fest Run in Tell City, the Big Blue Riverfront Relay and Glo in the Park 5k in Owensboro!

For those not racing this weekend I have posted a 12 mile route to the East, starting at 6:00 from the Downtown YMCA.
