Hi ya'll,

I'm a beginner runner and I really want to run the
Boston Marathon. I think having a marathon as a goal
will be great motivation to stay get and stay fit. I
also want to do it for personal reasons. Have any of
you run a marathon? Is anyone currently training for a
marathon? I've never done this before and I don't know
if running this spring would be a realistic goal if I
start training now. What do you think?

Hey gals,

I'd be up for (re)starting Saturday morning runs in January.  Keep me
posted. I can't do too early because I'll run into things.  Who am I
kidding?  I'll run into things anyhow.

Hello Chix,

The end of 2006 is upon us and what a great year it has been. We got to meet so many great women this year, at our weekly runs, clinics, races and other events. We truly enjoyed meeting you all, and look forward to seeing everyone again in 2007.

Our fundraising for the Breast Cancer Fund received alot of support in 2006, we held three fundraising events and raised a totel of $1912 for the cause.

Iron Girl - $572
Lucky Strike - $1000
Tufts 10K - $340

Each Team Luna Chix group all have to raise $1000 per year, with over 19 teams that is alot of fund for the Breast Cancer Fund. We will have an overall total of the amount the Team Luna Chix program raised during 2006 in January.

One of our Luna Chix too - Cynthia, did some outstanding fundraising for her 1st Marathon last time I checked it was $3700. Way to go - Cynthia.

We would like to wish everyone all the best for Christmas and the New Year.

We look forward to seeing you at our events in 2007.

Happy Holidays,
Boston Luna Chix

Hi,

Trail running and snowshowing sound great. I have
just moved to Hull and want to explore Wompatuck State
Park. So many trails so little time. . . . . . .

I teach on Sat mornings so will be doing most of my
runs sunday am. Would love to make a trip to Great
Brook in Carlisle. If anyone is interested in
Wompatuck let me know.

Happy trails :-)

I would love to trail run on a weekend morning with anyone who is
interested.  I usually do either the 8 m skyline at Fells and or a 8

Snowshoeing is also fun if anyone is interested in that at the Fells
when and if we get some snow!

Hey Emma,

Sounds good.  I'm flexible before the holidays, so
whenever would work for me.

I might do it, depending on how I feel that morning.  It'll be a last minute
decision.

BTW, I am training for the Boston Marathon in April (on the Dana-Farber team). 
Anyone else running Boston?

Gail

Hi,

Is anyone planning to/want to do some runs throughout the winter?  I
ran all of last winter and for the most part it wasn't too bad.  On
the other hand, last winter was a really mild one.  I live in
Brookline, but often run after work (Longwood Medical Area) and can
meet anyone wherever.  I'm not a morning person, so it's unlikely I'll
be doing any early morning runs. Get in touch if you're interested.

Thanks!

Anne

Each year we wind down the Wednesday Night runs for the cold/dark
winter evenings.

We do host other activities in their place and you could keep an eye
out for upcoming events on our Calendar.

We encourage you all to use the forum to look for a running
buddy/partner to run with. It is alot of fun and also very motivating
to meet someone for a run. In the upcoming winter months sometimes
heading out in the cold seems daunting, but if you know you have
arranged to meet someone it can be that bit easier.

We have created a Database where members of this board can share
their information and look for a potential running buddy.

Only people who has signed up to the group will have access to this
information.

So if you are looking for company, add your information to the DB,
you are free to edit it or remove it at any time. You can put your
phone number online, or you may want to have someone initially
contact you by email directly and then share a phone number with
them, instead of posting it on this board.

Start planning to get through those lonely winter days and
evenings!!!!

http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/BostonLUNAchix/database?
method=reportRows&tbl=2

There will be no group Wednesday Night Runs starting from tonight.

We had great turn-outs this year, and we all enjoyed meeting so many
of you.

All the best,
Emma

I have my running gear with me... it is a bit wet out there today but if
others are on for running I would be happy to go along  - got a rain jacket
with me.

FYI.... I am running very slow pace though right now trying to build myself
back up.

Let us know if you are planning on coming along tonight.

Emma

I'm in!

Heidi

(not sure if the previous reply worked)

I'm in! It's been a long time since I've gone on a wednesday run, so
my pace will be slow as well.

Heidi

Hi all,

 

Does anyone know of a group or somewhere that does speed work during the winter months?  I really need to increase my pace.

 

Thanks!
