Wednesday May 25th - Meet at the Tinley Park Track - the workout will start at 7:00. We will be doing another mile time trial - there will be prizes to those that beat their time from the last time trial and also a few predictor prizes in case you didn't do the time trial in April.
Is anyone doing Ridge Run, Elgin 10 miler, Tower Trot or any other races this weekend?
Let me know and I'll publish it on the blog so you can meet up with your teammates.
Many of you are in great shape - if you haven't already, test your fitness in a race.

Are you feeling faster?
This coming Saturday (May 21st) we will meet at Little Red Schoolhouse. The run starts promptly at 9:00. We will do the 4 mile tempo run plus a little additional speedwork.
The added speedwork will sharpen us up even more as we head towards our Spring peak.
Here are some great race results from the past few weeks - a few more strides at the end of practice might help move all these 2nds into 1sts!
Rich Matula 11:09 Re-Run 2 mile 2nd overall
Mike Blake 37:41 Bartlett 10K 2nd Overall
Spannuth & Wood Relay 4:02:27 Ice Age 50K - 2nd Overall
Eva 22:54 Oakbrook Terrace 5K 2nd in Age Group
Jim Raymond 1:31:03 Indy Mini 4th in AG
Eric Smith Ice Age 50 Miler 10:40 4th in AG
I know a few new people have joined the team - however I misplaced some of their e-mails - if you know who they are send me an e-mail and I will add them to the list.

Saturday Practice 5/14 and Note
Meet at 40 Acre Woods which is located just East of 119th and LaGrange at 9:00.
*IMPORTANT NOTE: When the team warm-up jackets come in, they will go to the silk screener. We will have the Tinley Track & Trail logo put on the back. Below that will be the skull logo that we have used on the back of team singlets in years past. The skull has become our trademark over the years, and symbolizes toughness, determination, and the desire to persevere through adverse conditions. If this offends anyone, or for any reason you do NOT want this on your warm-up jacket, please e-mail me or Rich by Tuesday, and we will ensure that it is excluded.
