January 12, 2019

    Well, we are in week 2 of 2019, and the weather has not been too bad. It looks like we may have some snow on Saturday, so we'll see how that goes. Going to try some new things on here this year, like a Marathon posting which shows who is doing what marathon and when. We are hoping to get some groups traveling to new places with none other than our group of runners. We'll call it "Road Trippin". We can have another group which would be for Ultras, "Kool-Aide drinkers". To save me time, e-mail me links to the marathon/Ultras you want to or plan to do, saving me time researching these events.  Once it gets going, I will try to add names of those planning to attend these planned road trips.
To bring all runners in the area together, we will start posting, Run 812 and the Loop Group weekend routes.  See them below the BOR route. Let's get started, and have fun on the roads and trails this weekend!

New Year 2019  New Motto, Out With the Young, In With the Old!



With the exit of Jeff, I have decided to step in and keep this Band Running.  Route Post that is.  With that, if you have any complaint, send them to Jeff, just kidding, send them to me.  This is new for me, so I am asking for help from all of you.  If you have a race coming up, send the link to me so that I may post  allowing others to ponder or sign up to join the groups.  If you have a special training distance let me know a week ahead so that I can add that distance to help you out and possibly give you company on your run.  Lets make this a fun New Year, and keep on running!



My Goal for 2019
 is Not to be Better Than Anyone Else,
 But to be Better Thank I Used to Be
