Buckeye Trail Winter Run For Regis

Boy what a day.
I know I wasn't ready for this. My training has slipped away to the reality of life (Work & Family). I ran a little less than 13 miles on the 50K loop. The elements took a toll on me and the other runners. The flakes were flying, we plowed through the course, the snow never did get packed down like we thought. It was like running on loose sand. I was glad to get out of pine lane and get a bowl of chili.

Now my thoughts are focused on trying to get my training schedule back...

Lunch Time Trail Run

Ran 7 miles today. I was joined by Traci. Everyone else must be up to their eyeballs in paperwork.
We ran Gorge/Highbridge/Glens...

Lunch time runs will be Wendsdays and Fridays and some Mondays.
(Most Monday runs will be a 6 mile 5:15am Call Farm route in Stow...email me if you want to join us)
Distance will be 6-9 miles. Some roads but would like to stick to trails.
Starting time: 12:30pm
Starting location will be somewhere near Downtown Cuyahoga Falls. Look for the post on the VR message board.

BLOGSLACKERS MUST BE FLOGGED!!!

I thought it would be nice to shoot off a post before an angry mob starts forming at Lock 29.

I've slowed down with my training for the winter. No I'm not in hibernation, I've just rearranged my schedule. I'm busy with catering gigs, kids, family, Church and I'm still working evenings at one of those popular delivery service companies. I've been trying to running two to three weekday mornings or at lunchtime and a long run on Sat. or Sun.
The plan is still in place to run the Winter BT50K. The plan is Run with Nick V & Brett S.
No time limit or pr's to set...Just run and have fun.
I'm also going to run the 2nd annual end of the year Falls Run, hosted by Nick Billick. We will run from Lock 29 to Pine Lane then to Brandywine Falls (Stop for pictures) then to Blue Hen Falls (stop for another picture) then to Buttermilk falls(more Pitures). It's a total of 17 or 18 miles. Out of all the falls Buttermilk is my favorite. It's not real big, it cascades down some rocks. It's really cool looking. I can't wait for spring & summer...Winter already sucks.
