Coffee Talk 4/22/09

Just wanted to check in with everyone. We have had a lapse with school vacations and busy work schedules. Really haven't had a reason to blog since everyone's training schedule seems to vary.

I wanted to check in before the Cox Rhode Race. It doesn't look like we will have enough members at this point to be a team. However, for those of you committed to racing that day, I want to assure you that you will have a number. If for any reason you feel you need to change your status from 1/2 to full or full to 1/2, please let me know so that we can do it before the race next week. The day promises to be a terrific one. Michelle, Brenda, Tracey and Susan, we will miss you this year.

Our plans have changed for the fall. Due to a conflict in travel for Thanksgiving, our destination race has been changed to Cape Cod the weekend of October 25. This is a Marathon and Relay race only. There is no 1/2 marathon or 5K. 1/2 marathoners can partner with someone and relay 13.1 miles. I am currently looking into hotel accommodations and will let you know what I find. Please check your schedules and let me know if you can still plan to run this race. For those of you who are serious about the relay, we can certainly work out the logistics so don't worry that you won't have a race to run. Lots of hills at the end on this one (yippee!) but the advantage of being at the Cape is the close proximity to home.

Friday run at 8:45 is planned. Seven mile route. Please let me know if you need water put out.

That's all for now,

Joyce
