WOW 5/5-5/11

Hiya Fits!

Before I get to the WOW I wanted to let you all know about a really cool opportunity to volunteer AND get FREE entry into events around the Chicagoland area like the Rock & Roll Half marathon, Chicago Spring half marathon and the Biggest Loser half marathon or 5K.

How you ask? While in San Diego last month Al and I met a fellow triathlete who volunteers for an organization called Raceguards. They are First Aid, CPR trained athletes who volunteer and use their training during events to mitigate medical emergencies right when they happen. So you're actually running the race wearing a small first aid pack.

If you'd like to learn more about it visit: http://www.raceguards.org/volunteer/ It's a pretty COOOL opportunity to give back while doing the race yourself!

Here we go!

Monday 5/5: @ 9 a.m. for a LONG bike and sort run to follow. Meet at Mike P's Hoover hideaway for an outdoor ride! Bring your trainers JIC it's crappy out.
Tuesday 5/6: @8:30 a.m. meet at Mike Ps' place, we'll be heading over to the Millbrook hill for repeats (running). Swim at the VAC to follow.
Wednesday 5/7: On your own
Thursday 5/8: @ 8:30 a.m. for an outdoor ride leaving from the Wades in Plano. Run to follow
Thursday 5/8 #2: @6:30 p.m. Tap House social run in Oswego. Meet in the p. lot east of the restaurant. We'll head up the FRT for an out and back. Drafts on special, $5 keep the glass!
Friday 5/9: @ 8:30 a.m. meet at Silver Springs for a long run. Swim at VAC to follow.
