Saturday, August 20th

Well the women made it an exciting race on Sunday and it made for a great start to the week of Track & Field, now it's up to the men to hold their own this Sunday at 7:30 am. 

Continuing the ladies theme this week, Good Luck and safe travels to the ladies heading West for the Leading Ladies Marathon in Lead, SD, where it's not reigning men but women!

This week Team 13 training moves to the Eastside for another try at an Ultimate Fit start, the first cancelled due to the heat, this week will be an 8 miler starting at 7:00 am! Same as before, I have included a 5 mile route from the YMCA heading out around 6:00am,, Walnut/Vann/Washington/Green River to Ultimate Fit, around 5 miles, return to the Y after Team 13 for 18 miles total, or there is a 14/12 mile option below. Comment or keep an eye on Facebook and Twitter for updates and car pool options for a ride back downtown if you don't need the return mileage.

See you Saturday!
