October Events; Track Workouts

Club Members and Guests:

1. 20-Miler Thanks: I'll have more to say on this later, but a quick thanks for now to those who directed, volunteered for, and participated in the 29th Annual National Capital 20-Miler on Sunday. It was a again a reminder of what a great race this is, and what a great Club this is. The volunteer support was outstanding.

2. Bunion Derby Awards: Bunion Derby Awards will be distributed on October 29th at 7:00. Site will be posted here tomorrow. Please mark your calendars.

3. Cross Country Race, October 13th: We will once again host a 5K cross-country event in conjunction with the Landon School Invitational on Saturday October 13th. Time will be 12 noon. This is another chance to run on the great Landon course, site of our Club picnic race in August. Stick around afterwards to see some fine high school runners in the Invitational races.

4. Track Workouts: Workouts are posted on the Track Workouts page. For tonight, October 3rd, the workout is 2 x 15-minute tempo runs, with a 2-minute break. Finish with 2 x 400M, with a 200M jog interval.

5. Army 10-Miler: Many Club members will be racing the Army 10 this weekend. Special mention must be made of our 10-Mile training group, which has been working hard all summer to prepare for this race. Congratulations to them, and thanks to their coaches. Their performances will be posted on this blog at some point next week.

6. Chicago Marathon: Good luck to all DCRRC Members traveling to the Second City this weekend for the Chicago Marathon! We'll try to have a report for you next week on our finishers.

Run well!
