This weekend we meet at the same parking lot by the start line as usual. On the 13th there is a trail race at the park so we will meet at the playground. The trails will be busy that day so plan on the roads. See you there!

Kenny will be at the Park tonight, please give him some company!  If the roads are not in shape to run fast, take this as an easy day or run a little longer and move the workout to tomorrow or Thursday.

The planned workout for today is 2-3M warm-up, 3M at current 10K race pace (you can use the pace from the GH2GH run or last week's 8K SSR), half to one mile easy, 4-6 x 1:00 hard/1:00 easy, 1-2M cool-down.

We will meet at Eagle Creek Park (Reed Road parking lot) this Tuesday at 5:30.  See you there for the fun!

Hi Gang,
This week we will be running at Eagle Creek Park on Tuesday night. Please meet outside the park in the parking lot at 56th and Reed Rd at 5:30pm.
Also the spring kickoff meeting is planned for Sunday the 31st at 5pm in the Athletic Annex.
See you there, Kenny

This Tuesday we will be meeting at Hinkle Fieldhouse at Butler University.  Please meet at the west end of the building at 5:30.  We will meet indoors if the Fieldhouse is unlocked.

Due to popular demand the Tuesday workout is on the move.  This week (December 15) we will meet at Eagle Creek at 5:30.  Please park outside the park at 56th Street and Reed Road.  The park may close before the run is done and I do not want you to have to drive through the woods to get out.  We will be back at the Annex on December 22.  Stay tuned for new locations throughout the winter.  Please call me at 317.872.0000 with any questions.

Starting this Tuesday (November 3, 2009) we will move from the Art Center to the Athletic Annex.  The start time will be 15 minutes earlier at 5:30 pm.  The loss of more daylight and the coming colder weather make this necessary.  Stay tuned as we might rotate the location a few times this winter.  Saturday runs continue to be at Eagle Creek at 8:00 am.  See you soon.

Good job in Chicago and Evansville to all who ran them. I'm looking forward to Tuesday at the Monon to hear your stories.

Good luck in your races this weekend, Kenny, Nate and Roy. Looking forward to seeing some good race times.

This is the race report I sent to Phil Carr after my first triathlon on Sunday at Tri Indy.

Hi Gang,
Just to remind you that this coming Sat. is another Tri at the park so we will be meeting at the playground. Also the 71st gate may be easier to enter.
Your Coach is planning on making his Tri debute there so be sure to cheer him on!
To all of you who ran the Personal Best 5 mile this past Sat., great job! We were represented very well in our presence and results!

Hi Gang,
As I didn't check my e-mail till late Sat AM I was unaware of a 5K Sat. AM at the park, thanks Patty.
Sorry for the inconvenieance and for my lack of forwarning. Hope that you all still had a good run and have a great rest of the weekend. See you all Tuesday at the Monon.

For those of you who remember Steve Atkins ... I saw him in the exercise room of our office building today. He was on the treadmill and said that he's been cleared by his doctors to begin running again. Starting off slow, as you might expect, but he was obviously eager to get going again. He said to tell everyone hello.

Hi Guys,
Just a reminder that this Sat. we will be meeting at the playground at 7:30am do to a tri going on. It is located by the 2 mile mark of the 5K. Also, you might enter the park by the 71st gate to avoid traffic backup.

Here's to a successful Boston qualifying attempt!

I hope you're feeling better by Saturday!

Good luck too all of you doing the Mini this year. And don't forget to stop by the Athletic Annex tent in the recovery area after for refreshments and to let us know how things went for you. See you Saturday!

Good luck in Boston, enjoy the city and the marathon! Looking forward to hearing your tails when you get back. Kenny

Polar, the recognized leader in Heart Rate monitors has launched its' long awaited HR monitor with speed and distance that utilizes GPS, the RS300XG1.  Until now Polar only offered GPS on their higher end monitors and foot pods on the more basic models.  The RS300X offers a choice of GPS or Footpod technology.  You can learn more about the RS300X at Polar's website.

Lance Armstrong scrapped his much-publicized plan to set up an independent drug-testing program on Wednesday because of high costs and nearly impossible logistics.

When Armstrong announced his comeback last year, the seven-time Tour de France winner said he wanted to prove he was clean, and was teaming with anti-doping expert Don Catlin, who would test him and post the results online.

But Catlin told The Associated Press that after months of negotiations, both sides realized the program wasn't workable this year.
