http://www.tamalparunners.org/ for details on directions...As I mentioned before, this will give our new members and experienced runners a 5K time trial base time on which to base your speedwork.
12/7/08. DR. ELMO plays at RANCHO NICASIO 4-7pm
Kids are welcome too. to make dinner resos: 662-2214;
www.RancoNicasio.com for more info. NOTE: I have recently measured and painted every half mile (facing traffic running direction, on both sides of the road) for a 16 miler that is used for long Tempo run at marathon goal pace. I will finish the 10M out/back point which is along the Samuel Taylor bike path soon. This gives you a different course, it's been recently paved so it's smooth, fast and safe; we'll use it in future for half marathon and marathon pace work. ...next focus: SF Half on Superbowl Sunday weekend and Napa Marathon in March.
