Half Way and Going Strong

The Sticks showed what they were made of during the half way 5K tonight, with everybody finishing under an hour. The course had some hills and lots of hot pavement so it was less than ideal. Good job to all. Saturday Maria and I will once again be available for the same 3.4 mile course starting at 8:30 at the war memorial side (parking available) of Oak Ridge Cemetery and basically covering the harder half of Abe's Amble. We'll continue the two and two pace and start to allow people to cover it at their own pace. Water will be provided at the half way point. Next week we'll move to closer to 4 miles (probably 3.8ish) and continue the 2 walk/2 run pace. PLEASE BE SURE AND RUN/WALK AT LEAST TWO TIMES BETWEEN EACH TUESDAY. It's only going to get tougher from here on out. We want to make sure everybody can finish in August. We're very proud of all of you. Susan, Maria, Christi, and Mel
P.S. Don't forget to register for the Women's Distance Festival at womensdistance.com or getmeregistered.com. That's July 12th. I'm the race director and it would mean a great deal to me to see you there. Bring your kids (if you have them). The kid's fun run is FREE! Thanks.
