BOR




BOR YMCA Series Kickoff Dinner
Angelo's on the Walkway
Guest Speaker Western States Finisher and BOR's Own Dave Nichols
 
Come join BOR's very own running legend this Friday for a little carbloading just in time for the YMCA 5/10k. Can't wait to hear about Dave's experience running the Western States 100. No matter your goal, big or small I'm sure Dave's experience will inspire.

Saturday, August 2nd



Watch out where you run this Saturday, you may trip and fall into a 5k....races are a plenty this weekend. Several are making their way to New Harmony for the Bicentennial 5k (see Craig for information and possible car pool info), you have the Band on the Run 5k in Newburgh (very fitting race), the always popular Watermelon 4 miler in Owensville, everyone gets a melon, the Viking Assault at the 4H, Jimmy Brigance 4 miler in Owensboro, Wettlauf 5k in Jasper and deja vu out at USI for the second shot at Night Flight postponed due to weather last week. Good Luck to everyone!

Alright, for those staying in town this Saturday, below is a 5 mile route to Central High School, Team 13 6 mile route and a 9 mile return route which can be cut back as needed pretty easily.

Saturday, July 26th





Exciting night on the Riverfront Saturday, the BOR was very well represented in many forms, all female teams, co-ed teams, co-ed pair and female pairs. Good to see so many out taking advantage of some great July weather.


 



 
 
 




The Loonie Marathon Friday night sounded like a wash-out, and I think all post race photos have been banned from the Internet...you know, I'm not even sure if I want a race report from this one. Congrats to those who finished and age group placed, and a few dried out and even made it out to run the relay, always amazed!

It was a big Tri weekend as well, we had one finish her first tri in the Indy Sprint and several did the 1/2 Ironman distance here at home in the Tri put on by the Southern Indiana Tri Team. Congratulations to everyone on a major accomplishment!
 







Good Luck to all doing the Dash for Donna 5k in the am and the Night Flight races in the pm on Saturday!

Below is more of the same for Saturday, a couple of options for those wanting to head back early to run with the Team 13 group. Next week I plan to incorporate an early run out to Central to meet up with Team 13, run the 5 miles and head back Downtown for those interested and needing the mileage.


See you next Saturday!




July Pizza: Stan's Una Pizza


 


Can't begin to tell you how many times we have run by the July pizza choice. After many an evening running up Harmony Way, tempted by the smells of fresh baked pizzas, we finally gave it a try, and was not disappointed.

This month we went the delivery route, tomato, green pepper and mushroom were our topping choices and it was loaded on top of a very good sauce and a crispy cracker crust which stood up well during the delivery process. This one was an age group winner in my book.
 

Seven months, seven new pizzas.......this is proving to be the easiest resolution to stick to yet, and I highly recommend for 2015.
