Also new courses for the Little Goblins Run 40yd dash, 1/4 mile and 1/2 mile. If you are into trails, you will Love what we’ve got planned for your Halloween Classic.

I got a lot of good feedback from yesterday’s column. Seems like I’m not the only one out there that needs to run to their limits to really enjoy it. To wit; the hearty soles that showed up and waited out the thunderstorms last night to get their track work on. And it was a tough assignment at that. Getting everyone ready for the fall campaign and the longer contests therein, I had them time trialing over various distances. Everyone working Equally as Hard the next. The highlight for me was calling out the 2 mile split of Thor and Pohren going through 2 miles in 9:43 en route to their 4K destination. Don’t try this at home, they are Professionals! Justin Mollak was thrown to the wolves and delivered superbly passing his 2 mile split in a pr 10:19. The Good Mates inspiring and amazing our Wednesday Night tracksters. Our Wednesday Night tracksters motivating the Good Mates with their own dedication and effort. Symbiosis baby. Everyone there helping to push and pull each other to greater good. Me riding ramrod over the group, excellence the common demand and expectation of all.
Barb Hike and Katie Cordes giving it their all en route to 2000 meters worth of pain, I expect nothing less and they delivered!

Three studs, Luka Thor, Justin Mollak, and Matt Pohren. Showing that we are all the same, the little exception being God’s blessing of natural talent.
