Run Scheduled - Saturday, May 1st @ 7:00 a.m. & 8:15 a.m.

Happy Tuesday everyone! Horizons Runners will be meeting this Saturday, May 1st. We gather in the Horizons Church parking lot. I am going to try something new this week, so here are the details.

At 7:00 a.m., those interested in a 5 mile run will meet up and run. At 8:15 a.m., there will be another run for beginner runners and/or those who are in the 3 mile or less ability range. This is an experiment so hopefully it works and accomodates the many different ability levels that are represented. If you aren't sure which group you would fit best in, email me and we can discuss your specific ability and I can let you know where I think you'll fit best. I would like to know who to expect at the 8:15 a.m. run, so if you plan on joining us, please send me an email.

For the runners who come at 7:00 a.m., you are all welcome (and encouraged) to hang around for the 2nd run and to help mentor the new runners. No matter which run you are coming to, please remember to be prompt as we head out for our runs a few minutes after the meet up time.

I hope this makes sense - please let me know if you have any questions.

Blessings,
Karen

Run Scheduled - Saturday, April 17th at 7:00 a.m.

Join Horizons Runners this Saturday, April 17th at 7:00 a.m. for a run.  PLEASE NOTE THAT THE MEET TIME IS BACK TO 7:00 A.M.  We will meet in the Horizons Church parking lot. 

Now that I'm officially signed up to run the Marine Corps Marathon again, I'm excited to get out and do a race.  October seems so far away.  On the other hand, as the weather warms up, I know it will get harder and harder to be motivated to do the long runs.  Anyone know of a good half-marathon in our area in the next couple months that isn't on a Sunday?

This Sunday, the Life Groups of Horizons Church will be "on display" before and after service so if you have any questions about the group, please come up and talk to me.  I'd love to meet you!  One of the best parts of this group is meeting other runners and learning from them. 

Have a great week running and I'll see you on Saturday at 7:00 a.m.

Blessings,
Karen
