Weekly Update for the Week of September 12, 2011


“Hurry slowly. Be dedicated and discipline and work hard, but take your time. Move ahead, but
be patient.” –Grete Waitz

“You’ve got to race for yourself. You’ve got to find something in your efforts that has meaning to
you, and only you can define that. Once you define it, you are going to be much more at peace
with what you are doing.” --Silken Laumann, Olympic medalist in rowing.

Congratulations to all of our awesome Chicago Half Marathon finishers! You all
did great! For those of you for whom this was your “official” event…don’t disappear! You are
welcome to come out to trainings. Bring your medal this Saturday and show it off!

Well, this is it…your longest training before your event. You are so ready for it!!! Remember this
is your last time to practice what you are going to do on event day, with a long training. Make
sure you prepare for a couple of days before by getting hydrated, ramping up the carbs a bit,
and getting plenty of rest. Also make sure to stay hydrated and get adequate nutrition after your
training. Below are a few more tips on making your long training successful.
