Time to start lining up a schedule for the fall. Here will be the 2-week cycle for hard days we will follow;

Wed-(track, SFU or Coq.Ctr)-10k paced work
Sat-Stanley Pk-tempo run
Tue-Burnaby Lk or Mundy Pk -10k paced work
Fri-(track, SFU or Coq.Ctr)-5k paced work....or hills or monofartlek
Sun-Stanley Pk-long run+pick-up or long progression run

TWW are lined up to start getting into that rotation. Wed. is informal so discuss amongst yourselves about when/where.

I know RichardM has been nicknamed the "White Kenyan" but my Dad just gave me an old photo from the inauguaral Waterloo 10km(1978). This is post race & this was before they figured out it was not a good idea to run long races midday when it's 40degrees out. I look a little dehydrated and hereby claim to be the "original white kenyan".

Accommodating

Hello LM'ers,

Hope this finds you all doing well.

As some of you may already be aware I am strongly considering a move to the west side (of the country). I plan to do some marathon training with y'all. I hope to get out that way by October 1 and will be around 'til at least January, if not longer.

If anyone has the low down on some place that I could lay my head for that time please let me know.

Best case scenario for me would be some sort of sublet. A full year rent may also be an option, if it's somewhere I think I'll be able to sublet if I can't stay in Vancouver. My girlfriend may also join me at some point, but for the time being it will just be me.

I've been looking a bit on kijiji and craigslist, but if anyone knows of a better site for me to scope things out please let me know.

Hope training is going well for everyone,

Cheers,

Dylan W.

<----- only one workout & a long run.
You can try this alternate workout if you like http://www.flotrack.org/videos/play/351123-krispy-kreme-5k-challenge .... this is the time to get that kind of stuff out of your system.

<----TWW & other good stuff posted.
Saturday will be a tempo run on the roads....good for everyone.

<----TWW posted. Let me know if you're showing up on Tuesday (Trevor?Hooch?) otherwise I will just show up in time to see Geoff & Shannon race. Early entry deadline for California International Marathon(CIM) is Aug.1. Price goes up $20 thereafter to a limit of 7500 entries. http://www.runcim.org/ There is also a relay event if any non-marathoners (supporters?) want to plan a trip.

<-------- TWW posted.
RichardM is doing off-track workouts the same days so contact him about when/where if you want to join him.

Nice runs by Hooch(33:33), Trevor(34:06) & Shannon(37:57) on Saturday. Also, a solo 14:45 win for RichardM at the BC 5000m champs.

I've got a thin black horizontal line thru my LCD TV screen. Other than this;
