September 5, 2020

 We're into another month, and it seems like September just snuck up on us!  The good thing is the cooler weather that we can expect!  Everyone is still training, and hoping for more in person races to open up!  Many I have talked with are experiencing some sort of running depression from not being able to compete in person.  

The Team 13 group trained their 9 mile long run last weekend, and it was a challenge, but those that got through it accomplished something good!  Some were able to get in the Azzip Fun run at Garvin Park, and hopefully had a good time!

This weekend, it's the annual 10 mile cookie run with Team 13, with a bad twist.  You have to bring your own cookies, and because of Covid requirements, no sharing.  That is the best part of this event!  Sharing, or sampling all the other goodies!  Team 13 starts at 7 am from Wesselmans Park and the route below is 10 miles.  If any BOR runners want an 18 miler, run from the Y at 6:10 am, or if you want a 12 miler, start early, and do the out to the overpass route from Wesselmans to add 2 or 4 to Washington.

In racing this weekend, there is the Run Victoria on Saturday, and the Evansville Labor Day Run at Goebel Complex on Monday.  There is the new, Indiana Covered Bridge virtual tour.  Whatever you want to keep your running juices flowing, get with the sites below to get signed up!
