We’ve finally made it.  Through 4 weeks raceless… through a raceless fall break… through a lack of a 5k… Out of the race drought we go…

First and foremost:

• For those racing in Knoxville this weekend, sign up for a hotel room and a car.  That stuff is in the dues-paying GroupMe.  Prepare for a long weekend – get homework done early this week.  These races tend to be pretty conducive to getting no work done.

In other news…

• We’ve sent a poll to the GroupMe regarding the State Fair.  We plan on putting together a group to head there on either Wednesday or Thursday, carpooling from campus.  Pick which day would work best for you.  If either is fine, let us know!  Tickets for this will be your responsibility, i.e club will not be paying for your ticket.
• This week at practice for will be talking about running for an officer position.  Within the next week, we will send out a form for those who wish run to serve on exec board next year.  We will talk about this first – what each job entails, time demands, etc.  Start considering if this may be something you are interested in.
• We are currently working on planning the Halloween 4xmile.  Some circumstances have led it to be a little delayed, but rest assured we are currently working on a solution.  Keep a lookout in the GroupMe for the sign up for this week.  You’ll be randomly paired with 3 teammates to each race a mile – fastest team wins a prize and best-dressed team wins a prize.  Don’t be the fastest… unless you’re also the best dressed.

Lastly, workouts for the week:

With much of the crew being gone at regionals Friday, we will not be holding official practice.  That being said, I encourage any remaining folk to hold an epic frisbee game.  And maybe snag a couple pics. 

That’s all for me this week.  I hope everyone is well rested heading out of fall break.  We’re halfway through… hang on tight!!!!
