July 27, 2019

What a relief this weeks weather has been!  I hate to wish my life away, but come on Fall!  Last weekend we had the Orangetheory 5K Fitness Challenge, the I Love Beer Run, the 8 Hour Dream race, the end of the Last Annual Vol State Road Race, and some of our fellow runners riding their bicycles across Indiana in the RAIN ride.  Hope everyone survived intact from the heat of the weekend!  Congrats to Chastity Hertel, Sharon Carver, for finishing the 314 mile Vol State, and  Cathy Downs for her 1st Female overall, nearly 40 miles in the heat of the day at Dream, those that did the Rain Ride, and any other runner that had a major accomplishment this past week

This weekend in training the BOR runners are going to start at USI at 6 am or whatever time you prefer, and then follow Team 13 with their 5 mile training run.  The starting point is the Children's Education Center area.  We are running 7 miles and if you want to time it right for joining Team 13 start accordingly.  If you wish, you could meet at Burdette Park and run the trail to end at the
Children's Education center for about 3.5 miles and then add the Team 13, 5 miler and then run back to Burdette.  BOR group, carry your own water The Loop Group will start at St. Paul's Church on the West side for their loops.  Run Walk 812 will not have an add on this weekend, but if you want miles, I'm sure you can add some!

This weekend in racing, a big group is going out to Washington State to run a 1/2 or Full Marathon.  Jack and Jill should be a fun downhill race to run.  There is also the Parklands 6 hour endurance race in Jasper IN.  There is also Night Flight Saturday evening starting at 7 pm, at USI. You may notice that I miss races occasionally so if you send me an email, it will help me to remember your race.  I try to follow posts on Facebook for my information.   Have fun out there racing!  

As always, be courteous and thoughtful to the drivers, while running the streets!

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