Congratulations and Good Luck, October Runners

It has been a busy month for us at Coach Kiprunning.  For my part, I am reaching the end of a writing class that I have been teaching, and the grading has been piling up!  Beyond that, many of us are starting to think about spring marathons--I'm possibly looking at you, New Jersey Marathon--so the inevitable preparations for serious training are underway.  Also, we're starting to brainstorm additions to the Coach Kiprunning website, and that work is always really time-consuming.

The end result of all of this is that we've been a little quiet up here and therefore did not get a chance to offer formal congratulations to all of you who competed in some of the fall's premier racing events, like the Chicago Marathon, the B.A.A. Half Marathon, and the Army Ten Miler.  Congratulations to all of you.

Likewise, we wish all of the competitors in this year's Marine Corps Marathon (and 10K) and the upcoming New York Marathon the best of luck.  Run well, and enjoy the experience.  Fall races are the best.

Last, on a somewhat sad note, we will miss you Harriette Thompson.

Fall Racing Plans? Train with Us!

Runners always seem to be operating on a calendar that is about six months ahead of where the rest of the world is at any given time.  We're only about 2+ weeks out from the 2017 Boston and London Marathons, and already, many of us are making racing plans for the fall.  Case in point: general registration for the 2017 Army Ten Miler opens in just a few short weeks.

If you have plans for the fall--for any distance, at any pace--I invite you to train with Coach Kiprunning.  I am pleased to offer a variety of coaching options, from in-person individual training to online coaching, for all ability levels.  I am also available to work with you no matter where you are training--in the United States or elsewhere.

If you have any questions about Coach Kiprunning, including inquiries about our competitive Sports Club (sponsored by Under Armour), please contact me.  I will be happy to talk with you about the training options that will be best for your goals--and, of course, I will be happy to coach you.

In the meantime, enjoy this lovely spring weather.  The hot summer days are just around the corner, as are the Chicago and New York Marathons!

Run Steady,

Coach Wilson
