Our team training for the rest of
2018 starts on July 22nd, a week after the Coburg Half. As usual, we
target specific half-marathons. There’s one this summer and another in the fall
(with other local choices available in each round of training). Those are:
Summer: Florence Half
on Saturday, September 22nd (with the option of extending to the
Oregon Women’s Half, on October 7th).
Fall: EWEB Half on Sunday,
November 18th (or the new Friendsgiving Half later that week, on
November 24th, with extended training for the Holiday Half, on
December 15th).
Some runners point toward other
events during this time frame. I can help adjust your training distances for
those but can’t promise full support every week.
The training fee for all these months is $100, or half as much for half this long. Ask me about credits you might have coming (for overpaying
earlier this year) or our possible discounts.
