March has been a bit difficult to get our group runs in with
all the weekend snows. Hopefully the weather is a little easier on us this
month. We will be adding in tempo runs this month. These are great at
continuing to build our strength so if you can it would be great to join
everyone. For our spring race this is our last month of long runs! Please
remember there are always shorter / modified runs available!
Reminder after March 30th, the block of rooms at the Wine Country Inn will be put back into inventory. To be secured a room please call them before the deadline.
April Schedule
Tuesday April 2nd, 2013 – 5:30 pm – Track
practice at Oberon Middle School
Sunday April 7th, 2013 – Platte River ½ -- or for
those not racing -- 8:45 am – Notice the later start time, we will meet at
Starbucks at 64th & Ward to carpool to Angie’s house. We have a
recovery week of 7 / 8 miles and Angie has a great course mapped for us.
Tuesday April 9th, 2013 – 5:30 pm – Track
practice at Oberon Middle School
Sunday Aril 14th, 2013 – 7:30 am – Notice the
earlier start time. Since our mileage is increasing and we need to practice
running earlier because Palisade has an early start time we will start our last
runs a little earlier. There are 12 miles scheduled this week. We will meet at
Goddard School and run Candelas, for the ambitious folks we will run it twice,
for the others we can add mileage through some of our old routes. I’m only
suggesting the hill twice because Palisade does have a hill and it is good to
practice this. I will need a volunteer for the aide station at the top of the
hill please.
