USATF – From Tom Steenkamer:
USATF Tyler Arboretum 10k Trail Run – Selling out
It’s that time again – the annual Tyler Arboretum trail run is quickly approaching a sellout.
That’s correct this fun 10k is Saturday April 11th and already has over 350 registered runners.
The race is capped at 400 entries due to parking limitations.
We still need 3 members to field a full team for this event.
Please check your calendars and get registered.
Ugly Mudder, Sunday 2/22/15
The 2015 USATF Off-Road Season kicks off in Reading, PA with the Ugly Mudder 7-mile trail run. Always a good time and plenty of post-race celebration to go around at the LeiderKranz. Day of registration is always available. Full race information is available here. Car pools forming now, contact Tom Steenkamer at for more info.
Couch-to-5k Spring Session
The next C25k session will start on Monday, April 6th. Darlise is looking for volunteers to help coach. Previous graduates are especially sought as they can inspire participants and show what heights can be achieved! E-mail Darlise at if you can help.
Central YMCA Indoor Triathlon/Duathlon
Joel Schiller is the race director for a very unique race. There are three stages: a 20-lap pool swim, a 15-mile SPIN bike ride and a 3-mile treadmill run. Start time slots run between 10:00 AM and 1:30 PM. You get to choose your start time and the order you do the stages in. Transition times do not count so you’re not penalized if your transitions are slower than most. If you do the duathlon you can choose from any of the three stage types!
Registration is only $20 (until January 31st, $25 afterward and day-of) and you get a tech t-shirt and a finisher’s medal! Here’s the link to sign up online. (Online registration closes on Feb. 26th. Day-of registration will be available, starting at 8 AM.)
