Club Members and Guests:
WORKOUT NOTE: Wednesday night track workouts are now posted for August on the trakc Workouts pace -- scroll down for the Coach's Blog. Saturday Long runs also are posted on the SLR page. Links to your left.
1. Track Races: Thanks to all who participated and volunteered in the 1-mile and 3K track championship races on July 25th. We had an excellent turn-out, and some very fine and competitive races. If you missed this event, put it on your race calendar for next year --- there's nothing like a race on the track every now and then!
2. Bluemont 5K: Richard Rapine will be directing the next installment in the Bunion Derby, Thursday night august 2 at Bluemont Park in Arlington. Course is the same as was used for the first Bunion Series race -- fast out and back course. See you there!
3. Picnic and 3M Cross-Country Run: Number 7 in the Bunion Derby is the annual Club picnic and 3M cross-country race, Sunday August 12 at the Landon School in Bethesda. Please plan to join us -- we hope to have the school's pool open and available to us, and if so, we will add an informal biathlon competition for those so inclined. (Races will be non-consecutive, so you will have an extra-generous and non-timed transition!)
4. 20-Miler: Registration is now open for this signature race on the Club's schedule. Sunday September 30, 2007, at 7:30 am. PLEASE consider volunteering for this event. It takea a lot of hands to do all the work necessary -- you do not have to stay for the entire race; in fact, getting a "new crew" who can arrive at 10:00 at stay until noon is always a big help.
Off until August 6th. The Club VPs will keep the blog updated in the meantime.
