For driving directions, running routes, trail ratings, or other
information about the group, please go to dtr.runuphillracing.com. If
you are unfamiliar with this week's runs, please read and bring a
printout of the maps and descriptions.

++++++++++

This week's Thursday night run will be at Lookout/Chimney Gulch in
Golden (T=3, P=4, N=2). The main group will start at 6:15pm; the early
group usually meets at 5:30pm.

This is a good run for newcomers because the route is easy to follow.
Also, it is an out-and-back, so you can go as far as you want before
turning around.

We will use a voluntary neutral start, with everyone staying together
until the trailhead, ~1/2mi. Regroup, with others, about your pace, at
the Windy Saddle road crossing, and at the top. The fast runners will
re-group at Boettcher Mansion before the run down.

Everyone is invited to dinner after the run. We usually go to Woody's
Pizza in Golden.

A reporter and photographer will be there to do a story about the group for the
Denver Post. They will want to talk with runners from all parts of the spectrum,
not just the fast ones.

Tentative schedule:
6/9: Ken Caryl, Manor House
6/14 (Tue): Green Mtn Time Trial
6/16: Lookout
6/23: Deer Creek, picnic

++++++++++

Tue morning runs continue at South Table Mtn (T=3, P=2, N=4) on Tuesday
mornings, 5:15am. Please see the message posted on Mondays, or contact Leigh for
more info: LSingleton@....

Wed mornings, run stairs at Red Rocks on Wed mornings. This is a
"show-and-go" workout, meaning that just start whenever you show up.
People have been starting anywhere from 5:30-6:30am. See the Tuesday
message for more info.

Wed mornings, every other week, join Derek Griffith for a long run near Ken
Caryl. He starts at his house, 28 Tecoma Circle, at 6:30am, and runs for up to 2
hours, 12-15 miles. Contact Derek for more
information, derek@...

This Saturday's Evergreen Runners Circle (ERC) run is from the Elk
Meadow, lower lot. The ERC runs are typically about 60 minutes long.
They usually go out for coffee/breakfast afterwards. Please forward
your questions to Dave via the ERC link below. For more info about the
ERC schedules, go to: www.geocities.com/Colosseum/Lodge/7018/index.html

Upcoming ERC Schedule:

6/17: O'Fallon Park.
6/24: Chief Hosa.

Volunteers are needed for several upcoming races. Races don't happen
without volunteer support.

6/12, the inaugural Rocky Mountain ½ marathon and Luna Women's 8k run,
at the Pepsi Center in Denver. I am coordinating volunteers with Potts. We still
need additional people for aid stations, traffic control, finish line, packet
pick-up, set-up, clean-up and other duties. Youth/civic groups are especially
welcome. This is a big money race that should attract a large and strong field.
Volunteers get a shirt and free lunch. Please contact me at
info@...,
303-870-0487; or contact Potts at pjones@.... For more info on the
race, go to www.rmrunning.com

6/18, Mt. Evans Ascent. They typically need extra help shuttling
runners down from the top. Go to www.racingunderground.com. Or contact
Darrin at info@...

From Bea Carson:
"Several months ago I started collecting data for a research study measuring
non-physical attributes of runners and walkers of all distances. If you have
filled out the survey - Thank You. If not , please consider doing so. I will be
shutting down the data collection site by the end of June. Also, I've moved
websites. The old site was www.bke-associates.com , the new site is
www.carson-consultants.com

This study is open to all runners and walkers To participate go to
http://carson-consultants.com and select the "Survey" button. For this study the
survey is completed online - typical completion time is less than 10 minutes. If
you would like a copy of the results please be sure to include your email
address.

Please forward this message to others that you think might be interested in
assisting with this research.

Any questions, contact Bea at bea@... or call 410-353-4722."

From Barry Siff:
"The Rocky Mountain Half-Marathon in Denver on June 12 has attracted a number of
elite athletes vying for the $25,000 up for grabs in prize money. Several have
run low 27-minute 10K’s, sub 1:02 half-marathons, and have finished in the top 2
or 3 at such huge races as the LA Marathon, Bay-to-Breakers, and Peachtree. We
have had requests from some of the athletes to provide help with transportation
to and from DIA, as well as housing for one or 2 nights. If you are interested
in helping out as such, please let me know directly. In most cases, the athlete
will be arriving on Friday, June 10 and departing Sunday, June 12. Thanks very
much. Barry."
