Hats off again to those who showed up Saturday to join Maria and me (Jill, Angie and Karen - Carol is on the DL) for a repeat of last week. We once again did the back half of the course which is the toughest part - starting from the war memorials back into Lincoln Park and returning. It's hills, heat and humidity - what Abe's Amble is all about. Jill actually had some great training partners - her husband Bruce, boxer Maggie and Maria and she completed 4 miles on Saturday. Great job, Jill. Angie improved her 5K time from Tuesday. Karen led the pack. We encourage all STICKS to join us on our Saturday or Sunday morning workouts. There is definitely power in the group.
Tuesday we will work towards 4 miles and also allow everyone to work a little more at their pace, similar to the 5K. This means some will run 5 and walk 2 and some will still keep with the current 2 and 2 pace which is great. We will indirectly head back to the fairgrounds by way of Ridgely School and the back roads through the main gate and to the grandstand and then west and back south out gate 11 on to Lincoln Park and then loop around for a total close to 4. After this week, we may have to move our longer runs to the weekends but we'll talk as a group. Hang in there....you're all improving and meeting your goal - to FINISH!!!!!! Susan, Maria, Christi and Mel
