November 2, 2019

Well here we are jumping head first into November! The weather took a nosedive, and it feels like winter already! It was snowing for a few minutes today, and that made it feel even colder with the wind blowing so hard!

Last weekend there were a couple of local races and a few from the Band made it out to marathons, knocking out states on their list to get all 50. Congratulations to all that raced and braved the conditions to, Get it Done! Those not racing put the training day off a day to avoid the rain of Saturday. Hope everyone of you Fair Weathered runners had fun!

This Saturday the BOR will break from Run Walk 812 who is running east from Wesselmans, and is going north to Central and back for 12 miles. The Loop Group is starting from my favorite place, Donut Bank on Lincoln and 41 for their loops.

Don't forget to save your canned goods for the food drive for Ozanam shelter on November 23, at Ultimate Fit.

This weekend in local racing we have the Columbia Chilly Hilly 5K at Audubon Park, the Cisne Fall 5K, in IL, by To the Finish. Rise up and Run has, USI ROTC Norwegian Foot March @ USI, and Tri State Fitness has the Stache Dash. For those going, the NYC Marathon is Sunday. Whether training or racing this weekend, Have Fun!

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!
