GC FFA and more!   Leave a comment

Tonight: Free for all at Kenan. We’ll meet at the statue at 6:20 and head into the stadium at 6:30. We will do ladders adn GC work for a bit , then hit the steps. Text both me and nana if you run late and can’t find us.

Thursday: Hart/Wests suggest a 4 on the 4th preview on Thursday! Let’s meet at McDougle. What time? It will be hot tht day, so 7 might be best. Thoughts? The course is (http://www.usatf.org/routes/view.asp?rID=24152): McDougle – Carol – Hillsborough – Hillsborough – Main – James – Carol – McDougle – Victory lap.

Weekend: How about a 7am Soup Bowl Plus from Foster’s on Sunday? We can do Bolin-Fanklin-MLK-Fosters for a 4 mile warm up and then do a soup bowl (up do estes, back down, up to MLK, back down) and then to the community center and back to cool down for a total of about 9. sounds fun, right?

Slimey and Domo have birthday’s next week! Who else is getting wiser?

May the squats be with you!

GC FFA and more!   Leave a comment

Yoda is back in action after a restful weekend! So I am brainstorming up some devious Soles runs for us! Let’s just hope the heat does not beat us up too badly. Sunday’s 7 am tour of Duke Forest was one hilly slog! Rock’n’Roll outlasted her own car battery during our ninety minute sojourn. Fortunately, Jim came to the rescue with jumper cables (but no coffee) for Kim!

Tomorrow, let’s do a GC free-for-all at Kenan @ 6:30. We’ll do some ladder and balance work plus some stadium steps!

Thursday, what about a 6:20 run @ FF with yoga to follow @ 7:30? This might get swapped out for a video run at McDougle.

We are up for a hot 9 miles this weekend. Any suggestions?

The 4 on the 4th is coming up. Who’s in for for that? Who’s in for the afternoon run+cookout later that day? Who, like yoda, is in for both?

The Miles4Melonoma 5k is on 7/14. Anyone interested?

Kenan free or all tonight!   Leave a comment

I am on the plane, heading back to RDU. It took some effort, but I finally laced up for an 11mile beach run! It’s not so much fun without the Soles for company.

Tonight, let’s meet at the statue ~5:45 and head into. The stadium by 6 for some surprise fun! We will do a a warm up lap, some GC-inspired moving and grooving, do a few stadium steps and wrap up with a cool down.

A few soles are heading to the shore on Thursday for a long weekend, but we should have enough of us left lo log some miles.

Let me land and sort out a schedule. Any suggestions?

The trails with you may they be!
