OUR BOSTON MARATHONER

A big congratulation goes out to Melissa who turned in a 3:45:43 at Boston.

Great job Melissa…you really turned out a great performance.

Saturday April 22nd

Good group last Saturday. 25 were looking for a warm spring run and were not disappointed. Sunny and just the right temperature for running. With the warmer weather we have to start paying attention to water stops. If anyone need water bottles let me know and I will have some with me next Saturday.

Next Saturday, April 22nd: 7:00 AM.

Meet at the Piggly Wiggly parking lot at West Blvd. and Washington Ave (MAP). We will run the bike trail south. I will have Norris put water out at KR and the bike trail which will be about 3 ½ miles out.

Since I don't know how far everyone is going this map takes the bike trail south to 12th Street. The mileage is one way!

***Reminder***


May 13th is the Ice Age 50. They are looking for help at a few of the aid stations. Anyone that is willing to help out please e-mail me so that I can forward your name on to my contact person.


Thanks
Bill

Next Saturday, let’s do the Colonial park run. The prediction is rain Friday and warm and sunny Saturday.

Start 7:00 AM.

Take West High Street west off Northwestern Ave. Meet in the parking lot at the bottom on the hill. West High Street is the street south of Sacred Heart School (across from the Unified office). There is a BP service station on the corner.

Well, I guess I really didn’t need to go all the way to Sanabil Island for warm weather. I saw the game time temp. for the Brewers game on Sunday was 60. Weather.com also shows it will be warm all week. Tom and I had a couple of nice runs but had to start early because of the heat. Precursor to summer, I had to walk some.

I hope all of you who ran the South Shore finished and were pleased with your time. That half marathon usually brings on dreadful weather. This yr. I’m in Fla. and the weather looks like it was pretty nice. To guarantee good weather for next year, I’m taking up a collection to send me back down here next year. For far, I haven’t even been able to get Mary to donate.

Is next Sat the Sat. Bill and Steph are in Washington? I can’ remember. If so, best of luck to both on your run.

Jud
Tan, rested and ready to run.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Well all I could find was four members of our group on the South Shore Results…if I missed you please let me know and I’ll update the listing. (See...I missed someone....Sorry Mike)

Jodie 2:26:26

A special Congratulations to Amy who not only ran a great time but placed first in her division!!!

WAY TO GO AMY!!!!

Great job everyone…we all hope you had a good race!

Saturday's Run: Panera's run starting at 7:00AM. (You guessed it, I will bein Fla. so will reluctantly take a pass on my favorite run).

Vova, this is an easy run for you to get to the starting point. If you want, you can just wait for them to go by on Emmertsen and pick them up then.
