It was another big group for the Team 13 training run on what would be a wet, humid, hot and thankfully overcast Saturday morning. Thanks to Curt, Cindy and the rest of the Ultimate Fit crew for hosting the event!
Congrats go out this week to those who hit the road and the air and to a couple of BOR transplants around the states. To one of our many Colorado transplants, Drew Sills on the Pikes Peak Ascent and our Kentucky resident, Dave Nichols and team on the 4th place finish at the Hot Hot Hundred K trail relay Saturday, our own group of crazies who made the trip to Elizabethtown for the Backyard Classic 8 hour run, which had it's share of weather related obstacles, and Michelle W. on her marathon finish in Iceland, great run everyone!
Sunday was for the ladies, as a few of the women of the BOR took on the Leading Ladies Marathon in South Dakota, Great Run Ladies!
The men also did not disappoint on Sunday morning, bringing home the first Olympic marathon medal since 2004 and the renewed hope for a future in distance running for the United States, with the success of both the women and the men in the Rio Games we are sure to see a bump in the popularity of the marathon and maybe even an American winner in one of the majors sooner than later.
Local Racing resumes this weekend, Good Luck to everyone running the Dog and Suds 5k and the PHI-K in Evansville and those doing the YMCA Tri in Warrick County, and Good Luck to those hitting the road to Knoxville for the last in the Run Under the Stars Ultra Series!
This week Team 13 moves back West to Mesker Amp., below is a 4/5 mile route from the Y to the start, and a return route to the Y which you can shorten as needed. I have included the 9 mile route from last year but I can't guarantee it will be the same this week, I will update if I get my hands on it before Saturday morning.
See you Saturday!
