Spring Semester Schedule

Hi guys,

I am working on putting together a schedule for this upcoming spring semester so we can train together in 2011.

So far it appears I will be in the gym/outside running at the following times:
Tuesdays 7-730am (starting time)
Wednesdays 845-1030am
Thursdays 7-730am (starting time)
Fridays 1pm and later
Weekends!

I am thinking about having official KSU Running Club Practices...Most likely these will be:
Tuesdays 7am
Wednesdays 9am
Thursdays 7am
Fridays (TBD)
Sat/Sun: runs in the CVNP (Cuyahoga Valley  National Park). This is located about 15mins away and offers some new scenery including nice road running, crushed limestone paths, and some awesome trail runnin!
For those of you who are interested, there are group runs that take place in 'the valley' as well. I can send more information about it out if wanted.

I will talk to our advisor and set a meeting time in late January to discuss upcoming events. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at sharpe1@kent.edu.

Happy New Year!!!

Winter Break and Looking Towards the Spring Semester!

Hey guys!!!
 Hopefully everyone is getting ready for those finals...
(or like me, you are finding anything possible to do procrastinate!)

So I would like some feedback over this winter break!
(relating to the upcoming Spring Semester)
Such as:
1. When are you free to run?
2. Where should we meet?
3. Is anyone in running at the field house on that nicey cushy indoor track!

Back to some Ole Business!
T-shirts-we have the design finalized. I need to find an affordable printer for THE Bomb design! Haven't seen the design? Go back two posts I believe....Once I find a printer and get prices...ill be collecting and takin orders!

Base Training-Yay! winter....sometimes I wonder if I'll ever run after this week. Anyway I have started base training running and on the bike for that matter. Basically-long(er) and slow(er) miles. Hit me up (sharpe1@kent.edu) if you wanna join. I am still kicking here in lovely Kent over the break. I'll Be a Runnin!!!

Late Winter/Spring Races-So you wanna set a goal and have something to work towards, take a look at some races. There are links to races that I have either attended in the past and/or will race again this season and I give 'em 2 THUMBS UP

Here we go:
The Great New Year's Eve Run, 5k in at the Stow high school! http://www.summitathletic.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=63&Itemid=63

Race Volunteers Needed

Alright I know most college students don't exactly "plan ahead" but there are exceptions to this stereotype.

Anyway-The Kent State University Running Club has been asked to assist with volunteering at the Towpath 10k, Half, & Full Marathon on October 10, 2010.

KSU Running Club in association with Grunt Girl Racing is planning on 'running' one of the water spots on the course. If you have ever participated in a road race event you know how much time, effort, and planning occurs to make it happen. If you appreciate that, give up a few hours in the morning and give back to the community!! :)
If you need more incentive...volunteer hours LOOK GREAT on a resume!

Sherlock Holmes Scavenger Hunt to take place in Kent

Sherlock Holmes Scavenger Hunt to take place in Kent

Grand prize is a week stay in a Florida condo..... HOLY SHIT? And THIS is FOR REAL GUYS

The popularity of mystery movies and mystery novels is growing into a worldwide phenomenon. People enjoy watching crime shows on television and they get excited when they solve the mystery before it is revealed.

Main Street Kent is proud to present “The ABC Mysteries” Sherlock Holmes Scavenger Hunt on Saturday, September 25th from 2 p.m. – 6 p.m. Teams of four will race through downtown Kent to find clues throughout local businesses. The clues will lead teams to a downtown Kent business to receive their next clue. Once a team collects all of their clues and reaches the finish line with the “final puzzle” solved, or time runs out, they will be eligible to win a variety of prizes.

Ron Burbick has generously donated the event’s grand prize. It is a week’s stay at a beautiful condo overlooking the water in St. Pete Beach, Florida!

All ages are invited to take place in this event. The event will be held despite the weather. If you’re a detective or you want to take a trip to Florida, this event is the way to go.

As Sherlock Holmes once said, “Come, Watson, come! The game is afoot!”
Cost per team of four is $50. Live music will play from 5 p.m. – 6 p.m. while the winners of the event are being reviewed. Space is very limited. The registration deadline is September 19. Registration forms can be found on Main Street Kent’s website (www.MainStreetKent.com) and Facebook page (www.facebook.com/MainStreetKent).
About the grand prize: It is a week’s stay at a condo located in St. Pete Beach, Fl. The development is called Sunrise Resort). It is a two bedroom condo (sleeps four), has a full kitchen, a living area and a balcony overlooking the water. No pets allowed. The condo must be booked by October 31, 2010 and used by June 1, 2011. Kent State spring break dates are available.
