What else is going on this week/weekend? Want to share?
There seems to be a lot of races this weekend; nothing that you can jog from home to but a bunch of races nonetheless. On Saturday, in keeping with the 10K distances are the Silver Comet 10K and the 9th Annual Jog for a Cause. There are also a couple of trail runs with the Assault on Pine Mountain 5k and 9-mile Trail Run, the Wellspring Sprint 5K Trail Run, and the Oneway Trail Run. On Sunday are the Junior League of Atlanta's 8th Annual Shamrock 'N Roll Road Race 5K/10K and the Hunger Walk/Run 5K. This is only a small sampling. Of course some of you are training for the half or full at the Publix GA marathon also.
This Wednesday you will be running route 8, the East Lake Golf Course run. The link to the route is at the bottom of this e- mail. After getting out of the hill on Garland, the route runs downhill until climbing Oakview Rd. Then the route continues to climb Howard to a quick downhill on College. Then it's the climb on Wisteria, and a finishing uphill at the shop. And as always, please wear your flashing, reflective safety gear for the run in the dark. After the run, it's off to Mojo's Pizza for food, drinks and trivia.
Enjoy your run Wednesday night. Thanks for making the Oakhurst Running Club one of the friendliest running club in Atlanta.

A big "thank you!" to everyone who helped me train for the New Orleans Rock 'n' Roll Marathon. And congrats to my Oakhurst Running Club friends, Sarah, Greg and Jere for jumping on the bandwagon and running it with me. We all did great but Sarah receives a special shout out for a PB of 3:41:50 putting her 34 of 326 in her division and 118 of 1702 females. And a final thanks to our support crew of Tsui Mei and Michelle. We had a great time in NOLA!
