Mid Week 9/21-22/10, planning for the future

Training for the early fall marathons is winding down with many of you running in a couple of weeks in Portland, Victoria, Hartford or Chicago. Followed by Marine Corps, New York, Seattle, CIM(just added a group for that in the community), Honolulu  Now is a great time to start planning for your recovery and then future events.

I think planning now helps you get on your way recovery wise and helps you transition back into training after you recover. I don't think you need to obsess over  it as you may have a biggy around the corner but you can start to lay out a loose plan to get you going after your upcoming event. I'll be putting up training plans for most winter and spring events this week so that you can see whats available and help you plan for them. Certainly feel free to create group in the community before hand that'll help me put them together.

We have a nice group shaping up training for the Seattle Half, that schedule started just a couple of weeks ago. so if you've been on the fence about running it. it's not too late. I think it would be nice to get a nice group of 20 or so training for it.

Marathon du Medoc

This took place in France the first week of  month, several of our members took flight to attend this event that is probably more party than race. looking at the results it appears the they took part in the party and not that race with them finishing in the 5 1/2 6 1/4 hour range. Sounds like fun!
