March 2, 2019

Moving right along, into the first week of March!  Hoping everyone had a good run or race last weekend!  There were some local and out of town racing going on, with Bound the Mound, and Cowtown, Louisville, Anthem 5 K, even a Disney race.  I ran in the mud, and only wanted half of the Half Marathon. (Old guys are less tolerant to bad conditions)

Cathy and Liesl took places at Bound the Mound. Ken McDonald and Aleksey Klenk, were among the Louisville racers, Brian Kirkpatrick made it to Cowtown, and Ellen Adler went down to run a Disney Fairy Tale race.  We get around!

There was a good turnout for the Ozanam Family Fundraiser.  Good food and dancing made for a fun evening for a good cause!  I'm sure next year will be another chance to enjoy!

This weekend we have races with: Pioneer Spirit Dash @ Boonville High School, and Run Into Madness 7K @ USI.  The BOR group will again join the 6 mile training for Peace Run and Harmony.  They will start at 7:00 am, at Forefront Therapy on 1st street downtown.  We will add on another 6 miles to make a total of 12 for our long run.  It can be cut short anywhere in the middle to get back to the Y downtown.  The Loop Group will meet at Newburgh Lock and Dam at 7:00 am.

  Goal for 2019
 Not to be Better Than Anyone Else,
But to be Better Than I Used to Be
