In light of a very stressful last week, we hope that everyone has had a chance to reflect and recover some from the events that have happened. Our thoughts and best wishes go out to all the victims and friends and families of those who have been hurt physically and emotionally by the poor choices of others. Our daily lives here, will return to mostly normal. Their struggles are just beginning as they recover from their injuries and adjust to a new way of living. One thing that every runner knows is we are some of the toughest people out there! When things are getting tough for you here reflect a little on the past events and run with a little fire inside you.

In a lighter note, I hope everyone has had a chance to check out the forecast for the next few days. Spring is popping it’s head in for a visit! The snow will be melting off the track allowing us to get back at it and rock some workouts. A congrats to Ms. Poland who ran Boston in a time of 3:13.02. Her splits can be found by searching for her here.

Next up is our other training partner Sarah Pizzo. She will be taking a trip out to race the Eugene Marathon in Oregon on Sunday morning. Best of luck to her and other friends of ours who are racing it!
