Talk about a hot start to the week: As many of you may know on Tuesday Kate Grace race fabulously in the Grand Blue Mile which is the USA 1 mile Championship in Des Moines, Iowa. She surged to the finish to win in 4:43:02. To add to the excitement of her race, we had Kara Foster formerly Kara Millhouse race in the Olympic Development 5k last night at the Penn Relays. She also won her race in a PR time of 15:47:66. Take a look at their post race interviews: Kate's and Kara's   

As you can see we had a fantastic start to a great weekend of racing! Here's a couple of the other races that we are anticipating to be great:

Core Routine For Runners: The Dozen

I was introduced to the "The Dozen" in the winter of 2012 by my favorite Oregon running family.
