Trackarchy!

It's our own version of anarchy...Trackarchy!

Go crazy and run whatever you want at Tuesday Night Track next week. We did it this week too. The blog maven ran with a few trackies through Burlingame and Hillsborough for a nice 6 mile or so run. Good company, good stuff.

Trackarchy is brought to you by the High School Soccer Turkey Tournament, so we won't be able to run on the track next week but we can run all over the place instead.

Let's meet at the gate, group up and go!

And Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who is traveling for the holiday next week.

South City Thanksgiving 5k Fun Run

Get in shape for turkey day by running a few miles at the 35th Annual Thanksgiving 5k Fun Run on November 22nd in South San Fran. There looks to be some good prizes, a raffle and lots of free grub. It should be a fun way to kick off the holiday season!

Miles for Migraine 5k/10K

Here's a race for a worthy cause. Millions of people suffer from debilitating migraine headaches. Migraines are not well understood so much more research is needed to find their causes and cures.

Miles for Migraine 5k/10k Race is being held to raise migraine awareness and to benefit research and education on migraine headaches. It's taking place on December 7th in lovely Golden Gate Park. Visit the website to sign up or to volunteer. It's a great way to see how much faster you've become after this season of track workouts!

November 11th Workout

Hi Everyone!

Here's the workout for tonight -

1200 (long rest or full lap)
800 (90 second rest or half lap)
600 (90 second rest or half a lap)
400 (45 second rest or half lap)
200

During the week of Thanksgiving the track may be closed for a soccer tournament. Joe D. is going to check into it and see what the details are. Even so, we'll still meet and either do hill repeats or runs through the neighborhood together.

Winter Is Here!

Okay, so it's still fall, but we really have two seasons out here; warm and sunny and cold, rainy and dark. We've now hit cold rainy and dark. That's no excuse to not run though! We'll still be meeting out here on Tuesdays at the track for winter evening workouts. Some groups will head out on neighborhood runs and some will stay at the track. The track is a great place to run on dark winter evenings, there are lights and there are no roots or potholes to trip over on the track! So pick your poison and join us for a workout!

Headlamps

Some of you were admiring my lovely headlights that clip to my running hat and wondering where I got them. I got them at MetroSport. Currently they have both my headlight and my blinking light that I wear on the back of my head on order. (I told the general manager, also known as my Hubby to order them). I will let you all know here when they come in to the stores.

The Web Maven missed Nov. 4th's workout due to a three-year-olds meltdown. But I did get the workout in yesterday! I'll be back on the track next week! Please email me (link at the right) with any news or other info that you think should be posted here. Have a great week!

Vote and Run!

Thank goodness it's finally here. What?

Oh! Not election day but 8 x 400m. What did you think I meant?

No seriously, get your votes in and then come on out for some fast quarters to celebrate.
