Quick, but large, ups to Jennifer. After a year of persistent injuries (while training with some other group!), she's been training for the San Francisco Half Marathon on August 3, the one I have personally wussed out of (unless someone wants to pay to fly me there).
Anyway, she's been racking up personal best distances, and she hit nine running with Daniel this last Saturday.
Kudos also to Laura, who, due to a wrong turn or to, ran eight miles for the first time a couple of weekends a go.
We've got some new people with us, too - my old friend Jana, and Jessica, and Rosa Maria. August will be on us soon, with the Nike Human Race on August 31, and our training for the AT&T Austin Marathon and Half Marathon will be starting up, as well.
So, if you've been out of touch, and/or sitting on yer butt, get up and come running with us this Saturday morning at 7:00am, at Whole Foods on Sixth and Lamar - routes up to 11 miles will be available...

The training group for non-uppity, non-elitist runners. We run in the spirit of our patron saints, Spiridon Louis and Steve Prefontaine. Spiridon was the little guy who beat the aristocrats in the first modern-day Olympic Marathon. Pre gave it all, every run, every race, saying "some people run a race to see who's the fastest. I run a race to see who has the most guts." Both had awesome moustaches.
There is no failure here, sweetheart - just when you quit.
