Rain, rain, go away

Well our incomplete run certainly wasn't for any lack of effort! What started off as the hottest Tuesday evening run of the summer, turned into the wettest! We will be giving the course another try on Saturday morning at 7:30am for anyone that is interested. We will meet at the starting line of Abe's Amble. You can still park in Lot 21 as usual, or you may be able to find a closer spot depending upon the amount of activity going on at the Fairgrounds in preparation for the Illinois State Fair. One bonus of running on Saturday morning is that we will be able to run the actual course through the cemetary. I will make sure there is water on the course as well. Try and get in some mileage this week and everyone should be in good shape.
Hope to see you all Saturday!

update

I do not think I will be at run group on Tuesday. My daughter has a manditory parents meeting for cheerleading and for some reason my husband does not want to go. Also, if anyone wants to run on Saturday morning email me at brih@casscomm.com. Good luck on Tuesday I know you can do it.

Tuesday Night

I did show up Tuesday night, I know I am crazy. I along with only one other person showed up. I did end up running but waited until the lighting stopped, I am not completely dumb. Actually I love unning in the rain, it is a nice break from all the summer heat. Also, if anyone wants to run the course on Saturday I can do that but it would have to be early like 6:45. I know that is early, but my daughter has to be at a birthday party at 9:00. Just email me at brih@casscomm.com, otherwise I will not be running that early. Good luck to all you ladies running the 2 mile race this weekend. Also, one more update I will not be there next Tuesday night; again my daughter has to be somewhere.

Saturday, July 5th

Great Job Tuesday! Everyone did extremely well. I am not going be able to meet you guys Saturday for a run, but Tara will be running the course at 7:30 am starting at the grandstand. I can run Sunday morning at 7:30 am for anyone that is interested. Please email me or call me if you are interested in Sunday.

Saturday Run

Just a reminder that on Saturday we will meet at Lincoln Park parking lot at 7:30. We will be running 6 miles, so rest up. Also, if anyone else wants to meet that is not in the group that would be fine this run will be very informal.

Hope to see everyone tonight at the IDOT trail for 5 miles. I know the 5 mile mark is very significant but I think everyone is able to do, and believe me it is much easier to do the long runs with a running partner.

Tuesday June 24th

According to Abe Army's blog, corporals will not be able to meet at the Fairgrounds this week.

Where does everyone want to meet? A few options is the Dove Center at Prairie Heart, IDOT-Lost Bridge trail, or Washington Park, or any other ideas you may have

Please add a comment or send me a email with your preference. Please check the blog or your email tomorrow (Monday) night or Tuesday to find out exactly where we will be running. We will be running 4.5 miles this week.
