November 14, 2020

It's the second weekend in November, and the crazy year is winding down.  The weather is cooling down again for the weekend, and if you are lucky Saturday, you will beat the rain.  Last weekend we started and finished at Forefront Therapy, and if you had any therapy needs, I hope you were able to get some answers.  Some of you may have ventured to the race in Bowling Green, and hoping you ran well!  Michelle Walker found another marathon not too far away in Louisville KY.  Congrats on another one for the books. (little pun there)

This weekend we will start from the Downtown Y, with Run Walk 812 starting at 7am, and BOR starting at whatever time from the Y, you want to add extra miles, or with them if you want to add to the end or somewhere in between.  Some of us are starting at 6:30 am to get a few extra, and then returning to join the 812 group at 7.  The Loop Group is starting at Old Newburgh Lock and Dam parking lot. at 7 am, for loops from there.

Don't forget to round up some canned goods and hygiene products for next weekends run from Ultimate Fit, to benefit Ozanam shelter.   Some of the items needed are canned fruit, tuna, carrot. Non Food items needed, deodorant, hair brushes, combs.


In local races, To The Finish has the, Evansville Civic Theatre Off Broadway 5K at Lamasco Park, at 9 am.  There are still some virtual races available to get in on, especially my favorite Turkey Day 5K by Goodwill Industries.  See the sites below for more information on them.  Some of the Ultra runners are heading to Tunnel Hill this weekend for some long running races.  Check with Durbin Race Management for details.




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

Goal for 2020
Not to be Better Than Anyone Else,
But to be Better Than YOU Used to Be!





Remember to shop local, and support our favorite running and fitness store. Curt, Cindi, and the Ultimate Fit team will help you get to and through your training and racing needs! They will have all of the winter layering and cold weather gear you might need. With the earlier darkness, get your illumination gear, so everyone can see you coming while running the streets!
