Hi Folks,

(he’s coming back from East coast Th night) ..need folks to check in on Sandy too for a meal and any errands; I got her home at 9 pm on Wednesday…I won’t be at 9 a.m. workout group to get errands done…..keep checking in on this blog for updates….Kevin Porter will be doing Ironman Hawaii on Sat 10/8/11; you can track his progress and the leaders by going to Ironmanlive.com. Gayle S, Dave C and I will be there to cheer him on: it’s a very tough, hot, humid and windy triathlon.

10/4/11 TUESDAY 6:30 p.m. HOUR RUN at San Rafael HS. A great tempo workout, so I recommend it! Bring a lap counter to keep track for you. You can also run 30 minutes; either way it’s good practice for pacing and a self-test as to what you can cover in the designated time period.

Park in NGate Shopping Center parking, do warm-up earlier so that you are ready to go at 7:30 a.m… Warren will head up the workout; be sure to have him help you with how to improve speed and uphill power. We’ll have the equipment there, tires for some pulls and DB’s/kettlebells…REMEMBER, keep to right side going up and down the hill when running the hill repeats because service cars do go up to the Villa Marin..
