September 26, 2020

 Here we are, in the last weekend in September, and Fall is upon us.  The weather is feeling like Fall, and the humidity is more breathable!  

Last weekend Team 13 had their longest, long run of 11 miles.  For those that it is the longest you have ran, Congratulations!  Some of you are into the virtual races, and others are training for when the marathons get going.  It looks from the Facebook posts that some have had some pavement kisses, and have battle scars from running tough races.  Be careful out there, you only have one body.  Keep it healthy and protect it from those bumps in the road.  A big congrats to Cathy and Big Sexy for a 60 mile training run on Saturday!

This weekend, Team 13 will do an 8 mile training run starting at Garvin Park at 7am.  The BOR group will start at the Y at 6:30 am, and run to the park, including the big loop, and meet up at the fountain area to start the 8 mile run.  The route back to the y will give you the normal run 12 miles.  If you are in the marathon deep training, and need a 20 miler, do the Y start, do 2 loops of 8 and return to the Y.

In racing this weekend, some are in Alaska for a marathon on Sunday.  Good luck to Miki, Jen, Martha, and Marr Elise.  Keep a safe distance from the bears! 😏 Locally, there are still some of the virtual races, so if you are interested, get signed up before it's too late.  The Y Virtual Half Marathon is still an option, now that you are trained up, sign up and run it virtually, and test your body for a half marathon.  Check out the sites below.
