Wow...can you believe the marathon is only 2 1/2 weeks away?? I've gotten a little behind on the updates and blogging...it's been a crazy couple of weeks!

We had some hot and humid weather for the Bear Water Run...but we all finished strong!! It was great to have almost everyone at the event (Adam decided he needed to do some massive bike ride instead:-)) and it was a good practice for the upcoming marathon!

The Twin Cities Marathon Participant Guide is available on the website if you want to look through it before it arrives in your mailbox sometime this week. You can check it out here: http://www.mtcmarathon.org/Upload/documents/Marathon%20guide_2009_FINAL.pdf

This Wednesday we can all look forward to our favorites...intervals and hills!! Even though we're tapering I guess that doesn't mean we get to skip the hills:-P 

After we run, Michael Egan from Performance Acupuncture will be speaking about Chinese medicine, acupuncture, his focus on athletes, and more. He's someone that I highly reccomend and I hope you can all be there to meet him.

This Saturday several of us are participating in the Dave Ryan 5K...as a result you have several options for your "long" run this week:
    ~~Run the route posted on our running schedule and then run the 5K for an additional 3.1 miles.
    ~~Run the route posted on our running schedule.
    ~~Run 10 - 13 miles on your own.
If you run fewer miles, focus on speed and running faster!!!

This Saturday is also the "packet stuffing" volunteer event. Complete details are available in the document which I have attached below. Talk to PJ if you have any questions!!

I think that's it for now! If I get any more information I will post later this week. See you all on Wednesday!!
