VCTC

Bradford and I are now Purple People Eaters.

Or, members of the Van Cortland Track Club. Whose color is purple.

Figured we've become pretty serious about our running lately, so why not make it:

1) social
2) coached
3) discounted

So, Tuesday night speed workouts at the track, coached (followed by pizza)

Thursday night tempo runs (followed by beer)

Saturday morning long runs (followed by breakfast)

Plus, added perk of various discounts to local businesses, race fees, and entrance to summer BBQs, January awards nights, et cetera. Plus, maybe make a few friends along the way who are fitness minded as well.

Here's the webpage: (vctc.org)

And in other major accomplishment news: we ran our last 5 miler. Now, it's nothing more than 3 miles until Saturday when we attempt the insane: the 26.2 journey. And, I hooked up my new kindle tonight (c/o Brad's family!) and purchased "Run" by Dean Karnazes using the amazon gift certificate. Awesome. So inspired. But first, I need to finish "Marathon" by Hal Higdon, the ultimate training guide. And then watch the running movie I ordered off of Netflix, "Running America."

Ok, yes, I need some last minute motivation. But, I'm totally stoked!!! Go Purple People Eaters!
