Yep, that's right! This morning was all about the veterans...Derek, Mona, Concetta, Jeff, Christine and Anna. Can a 2 1/2 year old be called a veteran? Hmm... I may need to rethink my definition. Antrim was crazy busy! No parking, nasty bathrooms and no drinking fountain made for a less than ideal running environment this morning. But, hey... we're veterans. We can handle this. We all ventured left toward the Worthington tennis courts, approximately 5 miles roundtrip. I think Christine and Anna got sidetracked by the playground along the way. A HUGH kudos to Christine who ran solid, no stopping 3.1 miles during a training session last week. YIPPIE!!! She is sooooooooooo ready for the 5K on May 2nd. Are you? Who is doing the 5K or the half marathon? Who will be there to cheer on your fellow turtles?
I big shout out to the most adventureous, fastest, strongest turtle of them all... Bill Plessinger. Bill is the first turtle to go for one of his fitness goals for 2009... run a 50K... that's 30 miles, people! The race was today, right? So how did it go, Bill! Please respond to the blog and let us know!
Next week, same place, same time. 9am @ Antrim Park. The Fitzers and the Robeks have plans out of town so we will not be there. I predict this Sunday will have a record turnout of veterans, new comers and everyone else in between. Someone take a picture and send me an email so we can all stay connected.
Hope to see you all again on Saturday, May 2nd for either the half marathon or the 5K.
