Hi Running club a few things to talk about as you marathon trainers hit the end of week 9 and Half marathon trainers hit the end of week 3 and they are as follows. Your long runs this weekend should be 5 Miles for the Half Marathon Trainers and since it is a recovery week for you Full Marathon trainers you get off easy with only 11 on tap. Shauna and I have briefly discussed a few issues regarding the group, and have some ideas, but we want all of you to take ownership in the group. To do that we think a meeting might be in order so that we all can voice our opinions and make the group the best it can be. Shauna and I will come up with a meeting time and get you the information shortly.Not sure if anyone else is doing the 5k this weekend in town but I know a few of us are. Don't be afraid to get out there and race when you get a chance!Have a great weekend everyone.Bob 

Hi Bob,That would be a perfect pace and run for me, however, I have to be in Oregon this weekend for my children's soccer tournament. The first game is at 9 am.Let me know your plans for next Sat. I like to get my run in earlier anyway.Katie---- rjajr wrote:

I am going to try and get out a quick e-mail each week to let everyone know what to expect for Saturday Morning at the YMCA.This week marks Week four of 18 for those of you training for the Fox Cities Marathon. Those training for the Half will get started on a twelve week program starting Starting up the first week of July, we hope that all members of Run Club Commit to running one of these races or the 5k at Fox Cities. Goals are what motivate us, set them now! If you need help with a training program please do not hesistate to ask questions at the Runs or talk to YMCA staff, we are here to help!This week Marathon Trainers should be coming off of a recovery week and looking to run an 11 mile long run. Plan on Running two loops or to the downtown YMCA and back to complete 11 miles. Stop at downtown for some water and to use the bathroom if needed.Half Marathon Trainers should continue to build solid base. Try to go 1 mile longer then your longest run to date. The Half Marathon Training will start with a suggested long run of 4 miles in three weeks, try to be sure you are ready to cover that distance.Remember Runs Start at 6:30 and 7:40 from the 20th Ave. YMCA.  Random Notes:We are an official training group for the Fox Cities Festival of Races. Our runs are listed on multiple websites, Fox Cities Marathon, Red Line Tri Club, Fox Cities Tri Club and the YMCA website. Please continue to get the word out. We are working on a logo and flyers as I type this message. Mark your calendars for the 2008 Turkey Trot Thanksgiving Morning here in Oshkosh.
