Subject: Incline Club News: V14 TR #20 LR #39 — It’s Time
Good Evening Incline Club!
This is it. The past 38 weeks of hard work have come down to this. Given the amount of time and effort I’ve seen folks put in this year, I’m sure many of you will be pleasantly surprised by your results. Just remember to take a deep breath and run your race. Don’t worry about the guy in front of you since he will be burned out by the top of the W’s anyway :~).

This Weeks Quote:
***********************************************
’Cause sometimes you feel tired, feel weak, and when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up.
But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength
and just pull that **** out of you and get that motivation to not give up
and not be a quitter, no matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse.
-- Marshall Bruce Mathers III (Eminem), _Till I Collapse_, The Eminem Show
***********************************************
End of Season Schedule:
***********************************************
This week, the Thursday run will start at Memorial Park in Manitou, _not_ Hydro Street. The idea is to do a time check to the start of Ruxton (Ascent Runners) or Hydro Street (Marathon Runners). For most of us, the idea is to discover just how fast you should _not_ be running on race day :-)
This weekend we have the Pikes Peak Ascent and Marathon. Be there on time and ready to give it all.
Next Thursday will be the annual Incline Club end of season party. The party will start at 5:45 at Mansions Park. This is the pavilion located directly across the street from Memorial park where we start our Sunday Morning Runs. Everybody who is associated with the club in any way, their Friends & Family are welcome. You do not have to be a runner in this year's race. Further details will be sent out in next week’s newsletter.
***********************************************
Sunday/Thursday *’s and Race Reports:
***********************************************
In order to prep for next week’s IC Awards, please submit all outstanding race reports and requests for Sunday/Thursday stars by this Thursday.
Also, please try and have your PPA/PPM Race report in by Tuesday evening so that I can get the newsletter out at a reasonable time :-)
