Getting back to trail running!

It seems like forever that i have seen anyone, and i know its only been like a week or so, but i am dying to get back out on the trails with you! First of all, congratulations to everyone on their Long Beach Marathon finish's! YAY! I am so proud of you. :) We had some experienced full marathoners and half marathoners, and we had brand new half marathoners! So congrats! I hope you are recovered from that hard road, and ready to hit the dirt this weekend!

Saturday we will meet at El Moro at 8am up at Ridgepark for a 4 to 9 miler or so. You have never done lizard, and it is a fun one, so lets have the longer mileage folks go out bommer to lizard down to the other ranger station and up willow back to bommer and the cars. The shorter mileage folks can go out bommer down lizard to the intersection and up willow back to bommer to the cars. Please remember to bring plenty of water and some nutrition for during the run. Hydrate the day before, and it is probably a good time to start wearing layers. It does get cold in parts of the canyon, and if you need to stop and wait for anyone, you could get chilled. :)

Sunday lets get a 20 miler in or so and meetup again in El Moro for a couple of fun loops. Lets do the 12 mile loop over to the ranger station at Nix center, and then decide on the next loop. :) I am thinking the 8 miler. Lets meet at 7am with plenty of water and nutrition. You can meet us for 1 or both loops, please come prepared. :)

Trails and more trails!

You guys have been busy busy running I hope! The last few weeks have been a bit crazy, and it does not seem to be letting up much at all with upcoming races for everyone! Last weekend we had a great new race called San Juan Capistrano Trail race, and Pete and I had our Snails class do this for their goal race.  Everyone did an outstanding job! Some Trail Tales were there as well to represent, great job Kimmy!  We had our booth, and saw lots of familiar faces, and Pete and I took home some hardware! Pete got 3rd place in his age group, and I got 2cd place in my age group and 3rd woman overall!  :) YAY! I am liking the smaller trail races! :)

Since the Snails group has ran their first trail race now, and we dont have class on Saturday for Snails, I have invited them to our Trails on Saturday morning in El Moro.  They can do a short easy loop (4 miles), and you veterans can do a nice 8 to 12 miles!

Sunday is Long Beach Marathon, so that is were we will be that morning.  No Trails class that morning, maybe Sunday afternoon or evening we can get together for a quick 10 or so.  :)

Dont forget to come out Mondays with us at the Community Center for some road, Wednesdays with us at El Toro track for a track workout, and pretty soon for swimming and biking to gear up for Desert Tri! We will start doing evaluations on a 1 on 1 basis to see where you are and what we need to do for you individually.  Email us to let us know your time availability for a swim session.  :) We have wetsuits provided Xterra for you for you to try on. We are looking forward to working with everyone.

Have a great week!
