Treadmill for Sale
Dawn Lowe is cleaning out things and has a basic treadmill available for sale. While some of us see these as Satan's handiwork, others prefer to stay indoors for the winter. Dawn add this info, "I am continuing to clean out closets and other spaces and I have a basic treadmill for sale in good condition. Asking $300. OBO! It does come apart for easy transport but it is heavy!!! It is set up in the yoga studio for easy viewing or tryouts, but it is taking up valuable space so it must go! : ) " Email me at bill.tuszynski@gmail.com and I'll get you in touch with Dawn.
Pretty Sad
You have to wonder just how screwed up sporting culture has gotten when even someone who is basically a good regional runner winds up doping so he can win a few more $1,000 purses. A Barry Bonds or Lance Armstrong is almost understandable from the standpoint of highly competitive elite athletes who will do anything for an edge. It's much harder to make excuses for a cheater at this level. I'm glad that I don't direct any races with prize money involved. Maybe I'm just not smart enough or care enough about results to get the why.

Group Run/Ride
Our next event will be at Pfaff Elementary (1600 Sleepy Hollow Rd in Spinnerstown) on 11/3. We'll meet at 10:00, run or ride for about an hour so we can meet back up and slide over to the Spinnerstown Hotel to sample both their menu and taps. Those who are more ambitious are welcome to show up early to get in extra miles. The area is pleasantly hilly (how's that for a euphemism?) and you'll earn your Spinnerstown recharge.
An Impressive Runner II
Here's a story about HS junior Sarah Baxter of California who turned in an impressive 16;00 time over what is called one of the tougher cross-country courses, breaking the previous course record by 16 seconds and winning the race by over 1 minute. Another example of youth being wasted on the young.

Race Results
More race results than you shake a stick at thanks to the RW Festival with 6,000+ participants. Sorry if I missed anyone as my eyes got pretty bleary going through the results. Congratulations to Rim-2Rim-2Rim runners Bob Bodkin and Randy Latza on continuing their bizarre adventures with a 100 mile run and back-to-back marathons. Congratulations to Autumn Garges for her first 5K at age 11. Soon she'll be leaving mom and dad in the dust.
