Mon. 10/23/06 Week
Bike Ride, Tempo, Hill Repeats,
Johnny Lawson 4.25M XC Challenge
10/24/06. TUES. 6:30am TEMPO. YMCA. I may not be able to make it, but don't miss your workout: especially those doing NYCM!
10/24/06. TUES. HILL REPEATS, 9am. Tennessee Valley area. Meet at fruit stand at turn-off of Hwy 1. (Parking in church parking lot right nearby). Then we run into Tennessee Valley to where hill repeats will be held. We will be able to alternate between different hill repeat courses in the immediate area - provides good variety.
TH TRACK 10/26/06 at 7am and 9am at COM.
SAT. 10/28/06 Johnny Lawson Tamalpa Challenge 4.25M XC run in China Camp Park area. Most of you are familiar with the trails in that area. Done in separate heats: 9am-Women; 10am-Masters Men; 11am-Open Men. Gives you an opportunity to run a relatively short run over dirt terrain and still spectate the other heats. I'm encouraging my 9am group to run this event: it's in Marin, not too long a distance, and will give you experience running a XC race. We'll have a good many Tamalpans in the event.
RESULTS.
BILL JOOST ran a rather windy and chilly (44 degrees) Chicago marathon in 3:44:00. for story on Chicag marathon see www.ChicagoMarathon.com
By the way, to see the dramatic finish coverage with the nasty fall by the men's winner and the last 2M battle between the top two women, see www.letsrun.com and click on the race coverage, then the video pieces. Three women national records set today!
Today was also the NikeWomen's Marathon
I will post some of our group's results later. Was a good day for the event, though the start was cool and foggy.
