Thank you everyone for supporting us all these years! Can you believe that it’s been three years already? Well, it’s time to look forward and build on your progress. Are you satisfied with where you are and where you want to be? In 2010, the adidas Urban Run wishes a year of fulfillment and happiness and goal-oriented success! The adidas Urban Run continues to thrive with the support of all of our runners; as it is essentially YOUR running club, we value your input on how we can further improve our Monday nights, including where you want to run.
First, I hope to bring a stronger community. The emphasis will surely be built around running, but I would also continue to have people discuss other social issues, questions, and concerns that they may have running or not running related. Despite the short time dedicated to know everyone on a name-to-name basis, our group usually has dinner following the runs. It’s a great way to meet new people and extend your network. I also hope to have community charitable events in the near future!
Second, the adidas Urban Run is held on most Monday evenings, rain or shine. Some runners show up to have fun. But instead of being lackadaisical about it, how about structuring a training plan so that our run can meet your needs. For example, it could be your recovery or tempo run. We are more than happy to assist you on getting that new PR, running your first 5K, qualifying for the Boston Marathon, or increasing your weekly mileage.
Finally, the Kaiser Permanente Half Marathon is coming up on February 7th. For more information including Saturday morning training runs, see the flyer at http://bit.ly/81sFi4 (PDF). Many of our runners will be there running various distances and pacing different groups. And as always, Pacific Coast Trail Runs is giving all adidas Urban Run members a 10% discount; details are on our Facebook page. Make this the perfect opportunity to focus on improving yourself!
It’s going to be an exciting year and with some more special events planned for 2010 so keep your eyes and ears open!
Let this year be YOUR year!
