In my last email I mentioned that there are plans underway to host a 100 mile race right here in Southeast Michigan at Pinckney Recreation Center. This has now been confirmed. As a matter of fact there is a whole weekend of events scheduled at Running Fit's Run Woodstock Festival. More info here: http://runwoodstock.com/

If you are like me the only thing you stretch is the truth every now and then. For those of you thinking about adding more stretching into your routine Earl Wenk from Arbor Wellness has posted a rather comprehensive outline of stretching for runners. The stretches he demonstrates are what is known as Active Isolated Stretching or AIS. If you are interested you can download the brochure here: http://www.arborwellness.com/Stretching_for_Runners.pdf This will open up a 17 page pdf file which you can print and begin to incorporate into your workouts. If people are interested Earl is planning on putting together a class/demonstration of the technique. I will let you know when he sets the time/place/date.
