Another Busy Weekend for RunFit Members!

Wow! What a weekend!

It all started with Michelle and Melody doing the Seven Summit Challenge. Seven summits in one day! They hiked Papago, Camelback, Piestewa Peak, South Mountain, Lookout Mountain, Shaw Butte, and North Mountain. Whew!! It makes me tired thinking about it.

Then on Saturday, Anne, Denise, Melissa, and Janet did the Four Summit Challenge. They did Papago, Lookout, Shaw Butte, and North Mountain. From the pictures it looks like they had a lot of fun!

The Iron Girl 5k and 10-Mile events were on Sunday. As far as I know, I was the sole representative on RunFit at the 5k. The 10-Miler was a different story. We had Jacque, Laura, Kim and Melody running this event. Jacque came in right on target and Kim finished ahead of her goal time with an average of 8:57/mile!

Congratulations to all who finished their events this weekend. If I missed anyone, please let me know.

Now for this week... We're back at the Corona del Sol track Tuesday at 5:30 a.m. and at Walgreen's (Ray/Kyrene) Thursday morning at 5:30. Thursday's route will be changing so we won't be running on uneven terrain in the dark. It's just too dangerous, especially when you're trying to get the tempo portion of a run in. We were supposed to meet at the Farm at South Mountain Saturday morning. There are some less-than-desirable neighborhoods in that area. So instead, I think we should meet at the South Mountain Ranger Station (map). Those who are training for Tucson can run part of San Juan Road and then head out to the canal for the remainder of the 20 miles. We can all meet at The Farm after.
