Weekly RunDown #22

“No one will burn out doing aerobic running. It is too much anaerobic running, which the American scholastic athletic system tends to put young athletes through, that burns them out.” 
Arthur Lydiard

The Running Soles Team got chosen in the lottery for the Bourbon Chase Relay in Ky on October 13-14, 2017.  Looking forward to this one having not run a relay this will be fun.  Not yet sure if it will be my first relay as there is still the possibility I will be running the Hood to Coast in Oregon the end of August.

Ron Hill decided he had to take off from running Sunday.  This would not be news except it stopped the longest running streak at 52 years and 39 days or a total of 19033 days of running at least a mile.
