 Hey everyone,

Who is excited about tomorrow's run? Me Me Me

We have another great run planned and one of our most popular runs taking us from Crown Point to La Jolla. This run is great because we get the opportunity to run along the coast and see some amazing house (see how the other half lives) Following the run, we will head over to Crown Point Coffee. Get excited and we will see you in the morning. 

Shirts have been ordered and should be here soon 

Just a quick update on the shirts. The order for the shirts have been summited and in production. I am not expecting the same delays we saw last season and we likely have them in hand in the next week of two. 

Race Discount Codes 

We have reached out to the race directors for some of the upcoming races we will be doing in an effort to get a discount code for the club. It's really up to the race organizers if they will provide one or not but I'm optimistic. Here are the races we are in communication with:

  • Fathers Joe's Thanksgiving 5K (unknown if they will have a code for us)
  • Santa Run ( BFRC10 for a 10% discount )
  • San Diego Holiday Half ("blackflagclub” for 15% off)

Coffee with Friends 

This Saturday after we finish up we will head over to Crown Point Coffee only a few blocks away. The place next door also has amazing Acai Bowl with peanut butter. If you haven’t had them before you are in for a treat.

See you there:

This Week’s Training

We are in week 6 of the training program and week 2 of the Second Cycle.  Everything is continuing to build, primarily with Saturday’s long run.

For new runners, or people returning after a long hiatus, these “middle” weeks can appear to be the hardest as the “SUCK Factor” (SF) can get pretty high.  This is because the runs (and overall weekly mileage) are getting longer each week, all while still building the base foundation. Don’t worry, keep your runs easy in nature, and stick with the program and you’ll soon reach that magic tipping point.  

Specific training notes are:

  • Run//Walkers – No Change this week.  Keep your walks brisk, yet runs slow to keep that SF down!  Remember change from last week, Mondays are now INT and not WALK.
  •  Intermediate Runners – No changes this week.  Keep your runs solid and generally easy in nature.  Keep up the frequency 4x per week!
  •   PR Chasers – Solid steady state runs Mon, Wed.  Tempo on Thur. Saturday’s long run up to 13 miles with a combo E10+LT3.  Pushing near 40 miles this week!  (Max out at 44 during week 10)

Upcoming Group Runs & Clinics

Below are the run maps and the group run locations.  At the very bottom of this email are detailed instructions on the meeting locations.

Saturday @ 7:15 am - To La Jolla Cove (from Crown Point)

From Crown Point, head North around Sail Bay to the ocean and head North into La Jolla along the beautiful “bike path” and neighborhood of La Jolla.  It’s an Out & Back, so turn around where your schedules tells you, but you can easily get all the way to the Cove for a 15mi run, or the Shores, and further if you wish.

As Always

We usually arrive 15-20 minutes before each group run to make ourselves available for questions, tips, etc...  We also plan to stay afterwards for as long as it takes to do the same.  This means I'll be at Tuesday runs by 5:45 PM and the Saturday runs by 7:15 AM.

 

Please let us know if you have questions.

 

See ya out there!

Detailed Meeting Locations

This is where we will meet on Tuesday and/or Saturday:

 

Crown Point Shores Park (Southern Lot)

3550 Crown Point Drive, San Diego, CA 92109 -  (Address is not exact)

We'll meet at the Southern end of the most Southern parking lot in the grass area along the edge of the lot, closest to Ingram Street bridge.  Plenty of parking lot parking. There is a set of restrooms and water fountains in this end too.

*NOTE – between 11/1 and 3/31 the restroom at this parking lot is closed for the winter. There is a restroom at the other end of the Park just under a 1/4 mile away (you can easily walk/jog from our lot) and there is also a restroom at Fanuel Park which is about 1 mile into the run.  Keep this in mind if you find yourself having to go to the restroom as you near the parking area before the run.
