Running is a big question mark that's there each and every day. It asks you, 'Are you going to be a wimp or are you going to be strong today?' - Peter Maher, Irish-Canadian Olympian and sub-2:12 marathoner

Time yourself and write it down.

Saturday

10 minutes of stretching

Run/Walk for 35-40 minutes at just slightly slower than race pace.

5 minute cool down and 5-10 minutes of stretching

Focus on your form. Keep your shoulders away from your ears. Hands are relaxed not clenched. Your arms should move in a fairly straight motion parallel to your body not across. Think about lengthening your stride a little as you go.

Intermediate - 34 minutes

Advanced - 40 minutes

5 minutes of cool down stretching.

Have a great weekend. Sorry I've been a little distracted. School starts on Monday! The River City Roots Festival is coming up September 16th and right now I think we have for sure 3 Fast Girls running and maybe 2 or 3 more! Good Work. Don't forget if you plan to do this race, you only get a t-shirt if your registration is in BY 5PM SEPTEMBER 8!
