Team HillRunner.com: 2018 Al’s Run

Team HillRunner.com (minus Andrea – behind the camera) after the 2017 Al’s Run

Teammates (and anyone who would like to become a teammate),

We still have some time before the 2018 Al’s Run but there is a registration deal going on right now so I’d like to get this out there for those of you who want to save some money by signing up early.

If you sign up by this Friday (May 11th) you can save $10 on your registration.

This year’s Al’s Run is on Saturday, September 15th. I hope to see you there!

Again, here’s the sign up link: 

Note: I’m not going to inundate you with reminders for this. This is your early bird registration reminder. I’ll resurface this post with a different message one or two more times before the registration deadline.

What is winning to you?

Don’t tell me she’s not winning

We all know the simple definition of winning: crossing the finish line first.

But there’s much more to winning than just that. In large races, only one of thousands of runners can cross the finish line first. Many more may have run the best they could and have accomplished all the goals that had set out for themselves.

In fact, it’s possible that the first person across the line accomplished fewer of that individual’s goals than many of the people finishing farther back.

Use cross training as a supplement, not a replacement

Don’t be afraid to hit the bike, just prioritize running if that’s where your goals are

Do you cross train?

You very likely do something that someone would call cross training. Whether things to supplement our aerobic conditioning like elliptical trainers or cycling or things like strength training to beef up some aspects of our fitness that running may not do as great at, almost all of us do something.

How do you prioritize your cross training, though?
