I normally do a "good luck" message to let everyone know who is racing this weekend. Truthfully, there are so many racing my fear is I would leave someone off this list mistakenly, and I don't want anyone to feel left out. So I will begin by saying good luck to everyone! 
I think this is going to be an exciting weekend for the RMEC. We are poised to see some great performances. Ron, Kelly, and Robin are all running their first half marathon, and are well prepared for a superb race! Others is our group will be competing for age group awards, and quite possibly some overall awards. I will not call you out by name on the blog, but there are four or five of you that I will be anxiously waiting to see emerge from the trails at the finish.
If you are "watch-watcher" don't get too concerned in the early miles. Unless you plan to run a good warm-up (some of you will), you need to use your first few miles to warm up your muscles. Don't expect to go from "cold and standing still" to "race pace" when the gun goes bang. You might even end up injured. If you have warmed up, that is a different story.
Be looking for Frank, Arthur, Patti, Tracy P., and myself out on the course. Not exactly sure where and when you will see us, but we are there to cheer you on. If you need to drop off some stuff, we will be glad to take. Frank will be at MLK waiting for you all. Just remember, once you leave Frank behind, you are on the home stretch. . . give it everything you got and push to the finish!
