Meeting on Monday

Time for the monthly meeting again on Monday night, 7:00 p.m at FPC. Hope to see you there.

Training Program

The Parlor City Trot training program for runners and walkers will begin on Tuesday, June 16th. Registration deadline is June 9th, total cost is only $40 plus you receive $10 off your entry in the PCT race on September 5th. This year the race will offer a 10k, 10 mile, and half marathon. This 12 week training program will include weekly runs/walks and several educational presentations. It will be worth every penny and a great opportunity. Please pass this info along. Contact Mac with any questions, macmcavoy@gmail.com.

Group runs continue

Even though many, if any, are not showing up on Saturday mornings for the group run, I would like to keep it set up the same time and place so everyone knows. It would be nice if more of us could make it, I think it would grow if people knew that somebody would actually be there. Is there another day or time that would work better for most people. When do you normally get your weekly runs in? Just because you meet as a pack doesn't mean you have to run as a pack.

Good luck to those who are running the Indy Mini this weekend, and all other races too!

Indy Mini Meal

Teri had a great idea (although I can't participate). She was wondering if anyone in the club would be interested in eating together Friday and/or Saturday night in Indy for the Mini. Please comment soon if interested so she can make reservations, which need to be made this week. Who all is running Indy this year?

Spring Training Run Results

The race on Saturday went very well with a total of around 106 runners, 18 in the five mile, the rest in the 10 mile. The weather was perfect and made up for the nasty weather we had for the WOOF. We were able to use the timing chips for the first time and I think it worked fairly well. I hope they worked out all of the kinks. The results are posted on runindiana.com (click link to take you there). The only complaint I have about the day is I forgot to take my camera. Did anyone get any pictures of the day? I guess the next race we have planned is the Firecraker 4 mile in Fort Wayne on July 4th (did I get all that info right). We have decided against trying the Bluffton to Berne to Bluffton relay this year, unless somebody could take it over to plan it. Hopefully next year we will be able to work something out. After that, it's the Parlor City Trot, and the WOOF to round out the year. I have enjoyed the Ouabache River Runners and think everybody else has too. Good luck with the rest of your training, whether it be for the Mini or another race. Keep on pressing on!

April 18th Race

Remember the race is coming up, Saturday April 18th, 9:00 a.m. at the State Park. Mac is needing several volunteers for race registration and water stations. Please contact him or comment here if you can help. Hope to see all of you there.

Timing Chips this Saturday

Dave is wanting to use the timing chips this Saturday for the group run. The more people the better, so please try to come and bring others with you. We meet at the White Bridge at 8:00 a.m. Dave would like to know about how many plan on coming so if you could either comment on this post or email Dave directly. Thanks. Hope to see more of you soon.
