An Invitation - Pittsburgh and Pocono Marathoners |
|
|
|
Written by John Domico

This Thursday at noon the 2010 CVIM Boston Marathon team will meet during our normally scheduled track workout for some photos with our honorary coaches Greg Fredericks, and Joe and Sue Paterno. This year, we’d like to ask any NVRC runners that are running either the Pittsburgh or Pocono Marathons and are willing to campaign for donations for CVIM to join us for the photo shoot.
The only appropriate response to the great need of these difficult times is even greater compassion. The local running community has been indescribably important to CVIM’s ability to care for our neighbors in difficult situations. With your help, we can ensure CVIM is able to provide urgently needed medical and dental care to families and individuals who are struggling to keep food on the table from day to day, let alone afford necessary health care.
Please contact John Domico at domico@cse.psu.edu if you are interested or would like more information. Every cent you raise will go directly to caring for CVIM’s patients. Equally important, every stride of your 26.2 miles will feel a little lighter knowing that your running is helping so many people.

Thursday Track Report: You Mythed A Good One |
|
|
|
Written by Bwana

It was May in March, with temperatures in the 60s, blue skies, and light breezes as John Domico, Tom Cali, Judd Michael, Bob Cornwall, Costas Maranas, Jonathan Thurley, Dave Moore, Tim Aydin, Marty Klanchar, Tara Murray, Kathy Koetje-Simin, Meira Minard, Mike Weyandt, Martijn Westhoff, Dave DeGroote, Ron Cunfer, Mark Lee, John Wilcock, Jim Laudermilch, Jessica Wekke, Matt Soccio, and Marty Mazur headed for the track.
The Crew was waiting for Bwana to bare the meat-muffins to mark the official start of Spring. But Bwana did not get to work on his tan much during his Mediterranean vacation, seeing as how a significant portion of said trip was spent on a snowbound train. So, rather than startle the group with a vision of the Yeti, Bwana kept covered and gave out a downward ladder workout: 1000-800-600-400-200, with increasing pace each step down the ladder.
Speaking of mythical beasts, our pet Wookie has had a valid excuse of late to miss the track. But what about Mark Griffin? His eagle eye has obviously been on something other than the oval. Greg Luna must be doing his workouts at night under the light of La Luna. Maybe he's a werewolf. Lance Bland was auditioning for a part as Bigfoot. Tom Hilands was last seen in the lowlands, mudwrestling with the Creature from the Black Lagoon. Michael Goldfine was thumbing through Bullfinch's Mythology at Websters. And John Sheakoski, who is stalking the mythical Perfect Bracket, was watching round 1 at an undisclosed bar.

The Awards for the 2009 NVRC Race Series and Volunteer of the Year were given at the February 2 Club meeting. Last year's Race Series winners were Christine Rodgers (1st), Meira Minard (2nd), and Alan Effrig (3rd). The Volunteer of the Year Awards went to Marty Mazur (1st), Mike Casper and Jerry Steffy (tie for 2nd), and Cheryl Capone (3rd). There's a more detailed write-up in the Meeting Minutes.
The NVRC Race Series and Volunteer Awards competitions are open to all NVRC members. The Race Series rewards regular race competition as well as placement at many local races. The Volunteer Awards recognize those who give their time to the Club through Club service and race volunteering. This year's Race Series began with the First Night 5K on New Year's Eve. Tallies for the current year will start appearing regularly upon the completion of the Indoor Mile Series. For more information on the NVRC Race Series
