March 23, 2019

Here we are heading into the fourth Saturday of March.  Last Saturday was a good cool day for the Run Of Luck, The USO 10 miler, and training.  The Run of Luck had some of the brightest green outfits this side of Ireland!  Hope everyone had a good time running and dressing up for this one, and enjoying the beer at the end!

This weekend we have Beat Beethoven in downtown Paducah, the Mystery Race at Garvin park in Evansville, and the Wendell Foster Half Marathon in Owensboro, Ky.  Depending on what kind of distance and place you want to run, all venues should be fun!

This Saturday the training long run will join up with the Peace Run and Harmony training again at Forefront Therapy.  The BOR can start out at the Y downtown at 6:50, and run to Forefront on First Street, off of Vine.  The PRH group will be doing 8 miles, and we will add a 4 and 6 mile add on for those wanting 12 and 14 miles.


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