I've been running for a little over a year and love it!!  I have three
half marathons under my belt and have my sights on a full.  My goal
with running is to do my personal best.  Right now I run a comfortable
10:00 mile.  I find my long runs to be a challenge!  Would anyone like
to train for a marathon or at least run those long runs together?

I'm training for the Richmond Marathon and need a running partner for
a few long weekend runs.  I train around 7:00-8:00 pace.  Call me at
254.2702 if you're intersted.  I love to have some company for a 20
miler on-road this weekend (October 18-19)

I was thinking about it. Is Bethel hard to find? I have never been out that way.

Is anyone interested in a group run on Saturday or Sunday - maybe a
long run - trail or anything. Please let me know. Also, looking for
running partners - anytime during the week too.

Thanks,

TJ

a friend of mine from Chapel Hill has a mixed team - mostly women -
entered in the BRR and needs two runners.  doesn't appear to be a
competitive team, just looking for a fun running adventure.

if you're interested in participating in this fun event, drop me a
line.

you can get my email on either the 'contact us' or the 'leadership'
pages on the ATC web site

wally dunn

Excuse me...I meant CPR folk setting up a fun run, not CPU...you can tell where
my head is at this morning.

The race schedule is pretty full now, especially with GP events.   However I
would be in favor of a fun run with a charge of $25 or more to support this
worthy cause.

Perhaps the CPU runners could set this up on a Sunday as Sat. events are almost
every day from here on out.

As a local runner for charities for the past 7 years, I was
wondering what would be necessary to setup an event to raise
money for Trooper Blanten's family. There is a large running
community in the western NC area that I have noticed, and most races I
have attended range is size from 500 runners to close to 2000
runners. The average entry fee is 25.00 and I think that a
Race in the Honor of Trooper Blanten and future troopers who
may loose there lives in the line of duty would raise
several hundred dollars in a single event and I wish to have
the first event in NC in the honor of Fallon troopers of NC.

I am a member of the Asheville Track Club and I feel confident that
the organization could setup this event.

John,

Welcome to Asheville. I have lived here for almost thirty years and
think you will really be pleased with your decision. The ATC website
is a pretty good resource for people who are new to the area. There
are number of group runs in the Asheville/Hendersonville area along
with at least one track work out. I run on Sunday mornings with an
ATC group (anyone is welcome) at the NC Arboretum and enjoy the work
out. We normally run for around 75 minutes but will be ramping that
up as we start a marathon training on June 29. The group normally
breaks into four sub groups with paces from 7:30 min mile to ten
minutes plus. Why don't you come out one Sunday? We meet at the
greenhouse at 0830AM and normally start running at 0840AM. Parking
is $6.00 but I think they will sometimes let you slide in for free if
you explain you are running with the group. If it grows on you the
Arboretum sells a year long parking pass for $2 0.00! A bargain!
Even if you don't make it a weekly run you will meet some other WNC
runners.

Best wishes, Paul

Hello fellow runners,

I just moved into town a few weeks ago from Tallahassee Fl (Gulf Winds
Track Club) I'm looking to learn a little more about Asheville and the
local running community. As of now the only real place I have been
running is the Bent Creek area...not exactly use to all those hills
coming from Tallahassee but I'm coping (sorely that is).

I have been running for a little over three years. I have 4 marathons
and 4 ultras under my belt. I will be attempting my first 50 miler this
December back in Tallahassee. All that being said though..I'm a slow
runner but I love it, it's great medicine.

Again looking forward to meeting and running with you all.

Are the results posted anywhere?  I had to cut out before they were
finished tabulating the times and ages.  I'm trying to figure out if I
beat Shiloh.

LPM

My name is Frank Lilley and I am a member of the Rocky Mount Endurance
Club in Rocky Mount, NC.  Our club is putting on a trail marathon and
10-miler October 4 and I just wanted to let your club.  The race will
be at Medoc Mountain State Park near Hollister, about 30 minutes north
of Rocky Mount.  Here is a link to our website:
http://www.medoctrailmarathon.com/

If anyone has questions just e-mail me at flilley@...

I don't have any experience with two of the races but I have run the
Reggae 5k before.  The Rutherford race advertises itself as "FLAT,
FAST, & PRETTY 5K RUN" but I couldn't find any past results.  Maybe
it's first year??  Same with the Mountain Medley.  One disadvantage,
maybe is that it is a combined 5K and 10 mile.  However, it does run
around a lake so you would think it would have to be flattish!

From past experience I can tell you that the Reggae 5K seems to have
good times and is relatively flat.  The top three places last year
were 16:08, 16:31, and 17:10.  As you can maybe guess from the name of
the race it is somewhat loosely organized (the race started about
twenty minutes late last year).  This was no problem for me and added
to the appeal.  The atmosphere is very fun and I liked actually tie
dying the race T-shirt after the race was done.  I vote for the Reggae
5K.

Paul

Looking at the Calendar, there are at least 3 5K options this weekend -
- Reggae 5K, Mountain Medley, and something in Rutherfordton.  Does
anyone know which is the fastest course?

You should have received a response from Wayne Stanko re the Rock to

I saw an ad in "Running Times" Mz for Rock-to-Rock (R2R)in late May or
early June 2008, but do not see it listed as part of the Grand Prix
series as it was last year.

I would like to see R2R included in the GP series this year.  Is there
some reason why it is not listed? I thought it was one of the most
adventurous and fun runs of the 2007 GP season, very similar, but
rougher than the infamous Black & Blue run.
