Ever think that since you run in lots of races, you ought to volunteer for one every now and then? But if you volunteer, you don't get to run, right? Here's...
I got an e-mail yesterday from a new club member (she signed up Thursday!). She said that she went to the Saturday run at the Corner Bakery and nobody showed...
I only found out about this yesterday, but Lois's husband Richard died nearly a week ago. Evidently the services were Saturday. I just spoke to Lois, and she...
Yes, I have some thoughts. We need more people to volunteer to be leaders. It's not a big commitment. How about volunteering to be a leader at least once...
Jeannie, Thanks for the info about Lois' husband. I hadn't heard about it. I'm sure that she is having a difficult time and hopefully we can all give her some...
Hey all, check out this article regarding the inaugural Rock 'N' Roll marathon... Wednesday, May 8, 2002 (SF Chronicle) Court says runner can sue race...
There is something wrong with this story. Hyponatremia (low blood sodium levels) is caused by drinking to much water and not getting enough electrolytles....
Andy, I think that it is absolutely horrible that the race organizers didn't have enough water. That being said, I have always been cautious about first time...
Zane is fine and will probably run a race on the 4th. He ran his first 5K at Project Cuddel a couple of weeks ago. Back to the original post...I agree that it...
I ran the Rock & Roll Marthon that year in 4:17 and had water at every aid station, although I know they did run out some time after that. I never heard of...
I really enjoyed today's run at Spyglass. Thanks Molly. Even though, I cut the course because I ended up with a ferocious migrane, I still managed 11.5...
The biggest concern for most marathon runners on a warm day is deydration which can lead to heat prostration and ultimately heat stroke. A little known fact...
I know I haven't been around lately either, but if my body was cooperating better, I would be at EVERY Saturday run. When I was more active, I really looked...
Cindy - You're welcome - I enjoyed the run too. It was good to see you again. I haven't run that long since early October 2001. So I was glad to have you,...
I know this was posted a while ago, so my apologies... But apparently the Flo Jo staff is short of volunteers on Saturday's 12-3PM session. Contact Vicki or...
Our past pres, Paul McBride and Gabe Stryker became the latest Roadrunner married couple this past weekend. The ceremony was at their home in Michigan. Here's...
I am leading a trail run this Sunday morning if anyone is intereted. We will be running El Morro. I plan to start running from the El Morro parking lot at...
Folks It's that time again. Time for another Club Run through the Back Bay in Newport Beach. One of the shining jewels in the treasury of parks that Orange...
Just wanted to thank Pete Boisineau for the run this past Saturday in Dana Point. It was definitely worth the slightly longer drive. We started and finished...
Sorry I missed this one. I did head out to the Oakley plant to stuff bags for FloJo with Vicki and Randy though. They were done much earlier than expected,...
Are you trying to make me jealous? If so, it's working. Philip and I have been back in Northern Ireland since Thursday last week. It really is good to be...
Hi Everyone, I just wanted to say thanks for being so friendly, welcoming, and helping motivate me to do my first run! The Flo Jo was a lot of fun. After the ...
... corral ... Denise I know of 3 Roadrunners who will be running RNR on Sunday, Myself, Tonson Tong and Bob Hathaway. I am in Corral #2, I suspect Tonson is ...
Ed, actually this is my 12th marathon. 5th time at RnR. I am aiming at the 4- 4:15 hour mark again. Nothing out of the orginary. I did some looking into, and...
Laura, congratulations on your 1/2 Marathon. You did great! We're glad to have you with us. And good luck to all you Rock 'N' Rollers this weekend, Ed,...
Denise/Kenike The cap at RNR1 was 20,000 and was reached about the end of February that year. I don't believe it's changed since then. Apparently, they haven't...
Ed, You are right that if Kenike projected a 3:15 finish time, she'd have gotten in the first corral. But I must protest...it's one thing to be a little...
Molly Your protest is well taken. I don't advocate for a minute that everybody should exaggerate their ability to get to the front at the start of a race. In...
