No Practice Wednesday

We'll skip this one - due to turkey trots and family committments. But we'll be back at it on Saturday Nov 28th. Happy Thanksgiving.

Tinley Track & Trail Won the Team Challenge at the Pilgrim Pacer today for our 3rd team win of the year. Sarah set a PR.


Lost in the shuffle:
Two weeks ago at the Tinley Turkey Trot we had some notable results:
  • Ashley was the first woman finisher.
  • Jerry and Francisco set PRs
  • Chris and Carol were the first Master finishers
  • Also in Westchester at the Veterun - Sarah was the first female finisher and winner of $250.
I encourage everyone to back off from their training for 2-4 weeks to let your body recover. Doesn't mean you have to lay on the couch. But the key to aerobic success is progression and without taking a step back every once in a while you cannot continue to progress your fitness. The college kids do it, the Kenyans do it and so should we.

Not only are we fast, but we're also very photogenic. Both Ashley and Carol are featured on the Tinley Turkey Troy website. . . And not only did Jerry PR, he came in ahead of that other guy he's been right behind. . .
Way to go, all of you guys!
