DATE CHANGE: Spring Goals Meeting - 11/21

I know that everyone won't be able to make it, but I wanted to schedule a spring goals meeting on Saturday November 14th after the GRC Store Run. We can meet at Dean & Delucas (just a couple blocks from the Store) like we've done in the past. Mark it on your calendar.

The goal of the meeting is for everyone to throw out their spring (and winter) race plans so that we can form teams for these races and training groups leading up to them. Aside from Philly, most of the marathons will be behind us and it's time to look ahead to 2010. Races of interest might be - National Marathon/Half, Cherry Blossom, Boston Marathon, Broad Street Run. Others?? Given our numbers, we should have teams at all these races. I will print out a calendar so that we can all take a look. Also, looking WAY ahead, there also seems to be a lot of chatter about running Chicago in 2010. I, personally, am interested in this.

Training together in preparation for these races will get us all better and promotes the Store in the Washington DC area.

We can also discuss ways to improve the team, grievances, questions, concerns, accoladesyadda yadda yadda.

As a side, PLEASE take 5 minutes and update YOUR race results on the race results tab to the right. Record your best time for each distance listed (when applicable), the race name and the date while donning the GRC singlet. Thanks.

  1. There's a number of us running Richmond VA on that day -- how about having the meeting on a week night earlier that week?

  2. Who is running Richmond? Post it on the calendar...

    I think a Saturday morning is better as everyone is together already.

  5. I am good to go for that weekend. Now that the cross country season is over for my team, I am done school at 2:30, so during the week is good for me as well..

  6. I will be in NYC with a gigantic pair of headphones, meditating, with only hours to the big hurt. I will send my wishes, desires, grievances and race plans with a surrogate.
