    Weak and Strong Runs--Feb2 Ed.
    2 - FEBRUARY 2012
    I hope that you are enjoying this spring like weather this winter-----wow, can you believe it? Next week, I'll have a report about a special service for runners right here in Wichita. Some of my running friends are already involved, but I don't believe that the general community is aware of the opportunity.

    Plenty of chances to run a race for the next two weekends---hopefully this wonderful weather will hold out for us. The Y has a 5k trail run at Camp Hyde this Sat. (4th).

    The 20th Annual Super Bowl Sunday 4 Mile Run is this Sunday (of course) at Linwood Park Rec Center. Twenty years of a great no frills race. You can catch me at the finish line---I'll have a 4 mile head start.

    Next Saturday (11th) has a couple of races downtown a few hundred feet from each other. Cupid's Combo 5 mile and 2 person 5 mile relay is near the Hyatt. A new race that sounds like a lot of fun.

    The MDA 5k is at the Intrust Arena.

    On Sunday (12th) is the Not for Wimps 10 Mile/10k in Derby. Another great no frills race, but wimps need not apply, but if you survive, we'll have water, homemade cookies and Lamar after the race.

    As always, more info at www.runwichita.org.

    The above races will diminish the group at Health Strategies on Saturday at 7:00 am, but all are welcome to join the group in the parking lot at 551 N. Hillside. Most run the 7 miler to the fire station and back, but others run longer or shorter.

    The Sunday Derby Group will meet at 7:30 am at the Derby Panera (Rock Road & Meadowlark) for a run in the area. The traditional 10 miler is alive and well, but other distances are accommodated.

    The First Gear Wed Night Group will meet at 6:00 pm at the store for a run through downtown and the river paths. All are welcome to join the group, most run 5-9 miles.

     The East & West Side GoRun Group will meet at the stores at 6:00 pm for a run in the area. All are welcome to join the group.

    The Thu Night Group will meet at 5:45 pm at the North Chisholm Creek Park for a 5 miler on the K-96 Path. All are welcome to join the group, the park is north of K-96 & Woodlawn on the west side of Woodlawn.

    Have some good runs.
