First, we have the new Race Circuit that was started by Mike Breault. The next circuit races are the St. Patrick’s Day and Mountain Goat in March and Run for the Health of It and Jog for Josh in April. If you haven’t done so already, make sure to renew your membership. Only current members are eligible for the race circuit. Second, we have our first running of the Clinton Lake Ultra on April 1. The registration filled months in advance. If you missed the registration deadline and want to be a part of the excitement, you can volunteer at the race. We still need a lot of volunteers. If you are inter- ested in helping out, contact me, our race coordinator Tricia Crowder, or the race director Chris Migotsky. Third, we have updated the Build a Better Second Wind program. If you volunteer at one race or write an article for the newsletter, you will automatically receive a Second Wind running shirt at the awards banquet in January. Next, we have the start of the fun runs at Meadowbrook Park and the spring pizza party. The pizza party will be held after the fun run at 7:30 p.m. at Village Inn Pizza. Mark your calendars now for Tuesday, April 3. Finally, we will be starting a speaker series. Every couple of months, we will arrange a speaker for our club members. If you have any suggestions on speakers, please send me an email or give me a call. Happy running, Kelly Bails MAY 19, 2007 8AM Lake-of-the-Woods County Forest Preserve Mahomet, IL Race Flyers/Registrations forms will be available soon.

Ken: I started running when I was a kid. Back then it was just transportation. I wasn’t much of an athlete, but I could keep running longer than most kids. I stopped running after college for about 15 years and have been back at it for about 8 years. This second running career started out because I had gotten up to 30 pounds and was really stressed. I needed to do something about it. Cayenne: I started running when Ken’s family adopted me. I like running. Q. How long have you lived in the CU area? A. Ken: I came here for college in 1981. I went to school for 7 years at UI and have been here ever since. Ken and Cayenne at Riddle Run 2006 Cayenne: I was born in this area. I like running. dove and cottontail rabbit. I like running. Q.
