Join us for our weekly long run 8:00 am Saturday, January 19 at Sports Basement on Bryant Street.

For those on the Napa Marathon and Half Marathon cycle, we are 6 weeks out from race day. This is a down week for mileage, which means practicing running at goal race pace. For marathoners, this means 2 miles warm-up, 8 miles at goal race pace, then 2 miles to cool down, for a total of 12. For half marathoners, it’s 2 miles warm-up, 4 miles at race pace, then 2 miles cool down, total of 8. Of course, these are not rules, more like guidelines!

Of course, we’ll have routes for everyone!

Put it on your calendar! February 9, our good friend and Olympic marathon hopeful Angela Tieri will be conducting a stretching, strengthening and flexibility training session for all Half Full club members, plus friends and family. Bring a yoga mat, your foam roller, and any mini bands you might have, and Angela will guide us to a stronger core, increased mobility, and a better you! We will meet Sports Basement on Bryant for a run at 8:00, and start the session with Angela at 10:00 am. Last year’s session with Angela was awesome, I’m sure this year’s will be equally awesome, or better.

And we’re serious: feel free to invite a friend or family member to join us.
