New training times and places

Good luck to those who are running a race this weekend, the weather should be great for a run!
Jim and I will be at the band shell at 8:00. Jim is running the 1/2 and I am going to walk/run Calhoun for anyone who wants to get a run in and cheer for the other runners.
Next week we will begin a new training session starting with very short slow runs to bring everyone back in. If you have been able to stay well and injury free you can run at your pace with the other in-shape runners.
The days of running will stay the same. Times and locations will vary a bit.

Mondays at the RR @ 6:30
Wednesdays at the RR @ 6:00 (same as run club)
Saturdays at 8:00am @ Whole Foods run no later that 8:15

Please pass this info and the blog site onto anyone you think might be interested. Many of us have gone through a rough patch, but we are not ones to quit, right! Let's get everyone you know back in. We have too much fun to miss out!

Jim and I have signed up for the Resolution Run Dec. 31st. You have to sign up on line and the price goes up Nov. 1st. They are giving away a nice winter technical jacket.

See you all soon,
Cory

Week of 10/19

Hopefully this finds everyone feeling healthier and stronger. Jim, Dean, Joleen and I went out tonight and it was great! We are planning on running on Wed. unless it is raining pretty steady, then we will probably pass. Jim has to work on Saturday so we will not be there but we know of others who will be.
I know most of you will be doing the Monster in some form so hopefully we can all cheer each other on.
We have been asked what's next... Jim and I are planning on keeping the running going through the winter, same days and times but maybe meeting at the RR on Monday and Wed. We could move Wed to 6:00 and run with run club if that works for people too. Either one works for Jim and I. Let us know, some have trouble making it at 6 sharp. We love running Saturdays and don't want to change that anytime soon. We would meet at Whole Foods at 8:00, that way we can use the bathroom and stay warm while we prepare. We can run At 8:15.
There are several races available and if you don't race you can still train and be ready for the spring.
On a personal note, I am feeling better and I want to thank everyone for putting up with me! I was well enough to go skydiving last Saturday, What a Blast!!!
Hopefully I am on the road to good health!
Take care everyone. Jump back in when you are up to it! You know you want to!!!!

getting ready for the monster

Hello Gang,
I am getting better since the surgery, a bit slower than I thought! Jim will be down tonight and Saturday to run. I hope to be down on Sat. we'll see. You have some short fast miles tonight and 13 miles on Saturday. If I make it down I will be walking on Saturday. Hopefully building from there. I miss you all and am sorry to have had such a bad time of it.
I'm still planning on jumping out of a plane at noon of Saturday.
See you soon!
Cory

The week of Oct. 5th

Congratulations to all the TC10 mile finishers! You are all winners!!

Tonight the Vikings are trying to win and go into the 1/2 ahead.
Wed. the run leaves from Lunds as usual Jim and I won't be able to make it because we are in a suite watching "So you think you can dance." Sorry.

I will be having surgery on Friday so I am out of commision for a bit just yet. Jim will be there on Saturday morning for 10 to 11 miles. I am hoping I will be able to start back running soon. Obvisously, I am out of the Monster race at this time, bummer. I hope when all this is done I will be stronger than before.

For all of you gearing up for the Monster races, remember the temperature is great this time of year. Keep your training up, you can do it! If you have gotten a bit off track, get up and get going you can run the 5K, the 10 mile or the 1/2.

We have a new computer and I am slowly getting better so ... I will be able to update this blog more frequently.

See you all soon and know I am thinking of all of you!!!!!!

Cory
