Next Group Run
We'll be at the Crusher Road parking lot for the Perkiomen Trial on 5/28 at 9:00AM. plenty of running options but we need a local diner if anyone has a recommendation. I'll have my bicycle and a 14 mile route prepared if anyone prefers to ride neighboring roads. The Perk Trail also accommodates riders if you want to stay off-road. Let me know either by commenting or by e-mail (bill.tuszynski@gmail.com).
Now You Can Run In Space
Those of us who measure our workouts in PYE (Pints of Yeungling Equivalents) have been leery of venturing into outer space because of the lack of suitable refreshment. Well, thanks to some Aussie brewers, that hurdle has been overcome. 4 Pines Stout is brewed to be stronger in flavo(u)r to compensate for a loss of taste sensation in space and lower in carbonation to avoid internal unpleasantries due to the lack of gravity. Watch intrepid volunteers sacrifice themselves for the greater good by trying the brew under microgravity conditions. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1388228/Australian-brewers-aim-tackle-final-frontier-space-age-beer-Vostok-4-Pines-Stout.html

Pain or Fatigue
We've all been late in a race wondering when our legs turned in to concrete pylons. Is it pain or fatigue? Both are signals where our bodies have evolved to tell our brains to stop before it's too late. As runners, we've learned to avoid using our brains at all costs and slog through. While it's OK to some extent to ignore fatigue, you ignore pain at your peril. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/17/health/nutrition/17best.html?ref=science
National Trail Day
June 4 is National trail Day. That's also the date of the Wissahickon Trail Classic 10K off Forbidden Drive in Fairmont Park. It's an accessible and not too challenging race and a good introduction to trail running if you're ready to jump in.

We'll be at the Crusher Road parking lot for the Perkiomen Trial on 5/28 at 9:00AM. plenty of running options but we need a local diner if anyone has a recommendation. I'll have my bicycle and a 14 mile route prepared if anyone prefers to ride neighboring roads. The Perk Trail also accommodates riders if you want to stay off-road. Let me know either by commenting or by e-mail (bill.tuszynski@gmail.com).
Not Much This Week
Down in Atlanta for a tribology (lubrication science) technical meeting and trade show. I'll be slippery this week and keep things short since it's a busy time. (Some tribology humor!)
Club Races
Nicole Lisicky and the fine folk in Coopersburg and putting on their annual 5K. This gives you your one chance to go at maximum speed through the borough. Not that you're likely to exceed the 35mph speed limit. . . Before that, you can sample the rescheduled Third Thirsty Thursday.

In a Group, Daytime Fitenss 2X
Next Group Run
How do people feel about having a next group run on the Perkiomen Trail, meeting at the Crusher Road parking lot? The Saturday of Memorial Day weekend (5/28). We should go at 9:00 instead of 10:00 because the trail gets crowded. There's a nice 8 mile out and back as well as both longer and shorter options. I'll have my bicycle if anyone prefers to ride the trails or neighboring roads. Let me know either by commenting or by e-mail (bill.tuszynski@gmail.com).
Does Your Workplace Have a Shower
I've always been lucky to have a shower wherever I've worked, even when I've had a home office. Over the years, I've been able to run, bike or play basketball at noontime and not have to go out at dawn or after dusk. Here's an article about the benefits of adding a shower and bike racks to your workplace. http://www.grist.org/biking/2011-05-09-how-employers-can-encourage-happy-healthy-bike-commuters If you are an employer, think about adding shower stalls and two-wheeled parking. If a worker-bee, hint to your boss about how much more productive you would be if you ran or biked to work and how much more your co-workers would appreciate you if you showered. Ex-home office, my shortest commute has been 40 miles one way so no bike commuting for me.
If No Shower. . .
No shower at work? Tap your foot, walk around, play with your pencil or generally fidget. Here's a study that shows how otherwise sedentary people improved their fitness by incidental activity. http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/05/11/fidgeting-your-way-to-fitness/ You're still better off getting ral exercise than by drinking 5-6 Red Bulls during the work day to increase your nervous energy.
Club Races

Bill
How do people feel about having a next group run on the Perkiomen Trail, meeting at the Crusher Road parking lot? The Saturday of Memorial Day weekend (5/28). We should go at 9:00 instead of 10:00 because the trail gets crowded. There's a nice 8 mile out and back as well as both longer and shorter options. I'll have my bicycle if anyone prefers to ride the trails or neighboring roads. Let me know either by commenting or by e-mail (bill.tuszynski@gmail.com).
Does Your Workplace Have a Shower
I've always been lucky to have a shower wherever I've worked, even when I've had a home office. Over the years, I've been able to run, bike or play basketball at noontime and not have to go out at dawn or after dusk. Here's an article about the benefits of adding a shower and bike racks to your workplace. http://www.grist.org/biking/2011-05-09-how-employers-can-encourage-happy-healthy-bike-commuters If you are an employer, think about adding shower stalls and two-wheeled parking. If a worker-bee, hint to your boss about how much more productive you would be if you ran or biked to work and how much more your co-workers would appreciate you if you showered. Ex-home office, my shortest commute has been 40 miles one way so no bike commuting for me.
If No Shower. . .
No shower at work? Tap your foot, walk around, play with your pencil or generally fidget. Here's a study that shows how otherwise sedentary people improved their fitness by incidental activity. http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/05/11/fidgeting-your-way-to-fitness/ You're still better off getting ral exercise than by drinking 5-6 Red Bulls during the work day to increase your nervous energy.

Group Run, An Obstacle and An Alternative
Next Group Run
How do people feel about having a next group run on the Perkiomen Trail, meeting at the Crusher Road parking lot? The Saturday of Memorial Day weekend (5/28). We should go at 9:00 instead of 10:00 because the trail get's crowded. there's a nice 8 mile out and back as well as both longer and shorter options. I'll have my bicycle if anyone prefers to ride the trails of neighboring roads. Let me know either by commenting or e-mail (bill.tuszynski@gmail.com)
Another Obstacle Race & Discount
"Please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Lis Bailey and I am the Director of Marketing of Rugged Races LLC, which puts on the Rugged Maniac 5K in cities across the country. Rugged Maniac is a running event designed with the assistance of Navy SEALs (ED Note - I don't think there is a "Where's Osama" detour in the course). The event combines the most rugged terrain and burly obstacles to allow those with a sense of adventure to define themselves, then bask in their glory at an after party with live music, food and beer. The Rugged Maniac 5K is an ideal event for members of your organization to take part in, as our races are known for their significant difficulty that far surpasses similar events put on by our competitors.
Our events attract over 2000 racers and another 1000 spectators. Please visit www.ruggedmaniac.com for more information. On July, 9th we are holding a Rugged Maniac 5K in Englishtown, NJ. I would like to extend a promotional code for the Rugged Maniac 5K to you and all individuals associated with your organization - entering ruggedmaniactristate when registering will result in a 5% discount off the registration fee. Our registration site can be found here - www.ruggedmaniac.com ."
An Alternative Sport
There's a new sport called Kronum. It's a gemisch of soccer (without the rolling around grabbing a knee), volleyball, basketball with a bit of rugby thrown in. There are some interesting videos on You Tube and the sport has its own website at www.kromun.com. Best of all, the sport was invented right here in Southeast PA by Bill Gibson of Newtown Square. Maybe in the near future we'll see ESPN's talking heads talking about the relative merits of trying to score in the flex zone versus the cross zone. You have to watch the how to play video on either the Kronum web site or You Tube to have a clue.
Club Races
Climb in either East Greenville or at Palisades HS. both are great events and well run and I can attest to the fun endings to both. That will get you ready for the \Dark & Dirty, a party with a race for an excuse.

Race Results
This was one of the area's biggest weekends for signature races and our group did proud, including Debi Golbreski and Sara Sorensen who went west and far west for marathons. Sorry if I missed you, especially at Broad Street with 25K plus finishers. As always, the times are chip times. Places are determined by gun times, meaning they don't always match.

Keep me posted on favorite races and your race results.
Bill
How do people feel about having a next group run on the Perkiomen Trail, meeting at the Crusher Road parking lot? The Saturday of Memorial Day weekend (5/28). We should go at 9:00 instead of 10:00 because the trail get's crowded. there's a nice 8 mile out and back as well as both longer and shorter options. I'll have my bicycle if anyone prefers to ride the trails of neighboring roads. Let me know either by commenting or e-mail (bill.tuszynski@gmail.com)
Another Obstacle Race & Discount
"Please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Lis Bailey and I am the Director of Marketing of Rugged Races LLC, which puts on the Rugged Maniac 5K in cities across the country. Rugged Maniac is a running event designed with the assistance of Navy SEALs (ED Note - I don't think there is a "Where's Osama" detour in the course). The event combines the most rugged terrain and burly obstacles to allow those with a sense of adventure to define themselves, then bask in their glory at an after party with live music, food and beer. The Rugged Maniac 5K is an ideal event for members of your organization to take part in, as our races are known for their significant difficulty that far surpasses similar events put on by our competitors.
Our events attract over 2000 racers and another 1000 spectators. Please visit www.ruggedmaniac.com for more information. On July, 9th we are holding a Rugged Maniac 5K in Englishtown, NJ. I would like to extend a promotional code for the Rugged Maniac 5K to you and all individuals associated with your organization - entering ruggedmaniactristate when registering will result in a 5% discount off the registration fee. Our registration site can be found here - www.ruggedmaniac.com ."
An Alternative Sport
There's a new sport called Kronum. It's a gemisch of soccer (without the rolling around grabbing a knee), volleyball, basketball with a bit of rugby thrown in. There are some interesting videos on You Tube and the sport has its own website at www.kromun.com. Best of all, the sport was invented right here in Southeast PA by Bill Gibson of Newtown Square. Maybe in the near future we'll see ESPN's talking heads talking about the relative merits of trying to score in the flex zone versus the cross zone. You have to watch the how to play video on either the Kronum web site or You Tube to have a clue.
Club Races
Climb in either East Greenville or at Palisades HS. both are great events and well run and I can attest to the fun endings to both. That will get you ready for the \Dark & Dirty, a party with a race for an excuse.

Race Results
This was one of the area's biggest weekends for signature races and our group did proud, including Debi Golbreski and Sara Sorensen who went west and far west for marathons. Sorry if I missed you, especially at Broad Street with 25K plus finishers. As always, the times are chip times. Places are determined by gun times, meaning they don't always match.
