6 miles and a Marathon

Hi Ladies!

This weekend we re-convene as Team Flying V for a oldie but a goodie 6 miler around Lake Union! As we fly around the lake we can reminisce about the day when we were pretty sure we were going to die just trying to complete the loop.

The plan for now is to meet at Gasworks Park at 10AM (time may be changed).

In other news, registration for the Chicago Marathon opens on February 1, right around the corner. Rumor has it that is sells out in 2 weeks so better open that line of credit soon for the $145 registration fee! I know I'm going to start saving now for this trip because evidently Chicago is one expensive city! More info here:

See you all on Saturday, I'll bring the Muscle Milk for recovery.

xoxo,

And We're Back!

Although so much time has passed and we haven't posted a thing, many of us have still been busy running. Here is a list of what Team Flying V has been up to over the past year:

1. Team Flying V (plus Kath's mom) all ran the Seattle Rock and Roll 1/2 marathon including inspirational Lindsey who ran the marathon and ROCKED it! You can read more on her blog post about it.


2. Rach, Lar, and Kath all ran the Covey Run 10K for Children's hospital and successfully completed it in under 1 hour with only one near death experience (Kath tripping on her shoe string).

3. Lar, Kath and EY traveled to Monterey to run the Big Sur 1/2 marathon with Kiko and Matt and had some fun California adventures along the way. More on that on EY's blog as well. I recommend watching the YouTube videos!



Of course many other life things happened along the way...Stacey got married (Hi Mrs. Ellingson), EY got engaged (Officer EY's fiance is a lucky man!), Kath bought a condo, Rach turned 30, and Lar...well I can't think of anything...help??



Team Flying V cleans up nice!


So we are back in 2011 with some lofty plans to run the Chicago Marathon in October and we are bringing the blog back to motivate, post runs, and make fun of each other.

XOXO,
Marathon Lar
