Some insane times and some great running this past weekend with the heat were having at the Colon Run, Hatfield McCoy Marathon and the Jackal Marathon Weekend event! Congrats to everyone involved in all of these!

Good Luck this weekend to those heading to the Laufenfest 5k, remember, run first then beer garden, and to those heading to Henderson for the Run for a Purpose, and marathons everywhere!

This Saturday we will preview the Evansville 1/2 Marathon course, feel free to peel off as needed along the way to shorten it up, the course will have some support thanks to the Southern Indiana Tri Team, they are starting at 7:00 from Four Freedoms Monument so the first few stops may not be covered yet for those starting at 6:00 to beat the heat. If you get a chance join the event on Facebook.

See you Saturday!
