Side Aches By Bryan Whitesides MPT, OCS

Most of us have experienced the wrath of the side ache demons. What causes side aches (or stitches) and how can you get rid of them? Although the cause isn’t well known, most doctors think that the pain is related to the structures that hold the abdominal organs in place (visceral ligaments) or that the pain is related to the diaphragm, possibly a muscle cramp. The answers to how you can get rid of a side ache range from altering your breathing to drinking water upside down.

One popular sports medicine doctor stated that 30% of runners breathe out as they strike with their right foot and that this causes the ligaments that support the liver to be “stretched and hurt” (I couldn't find any research that verifies this claim). The doctor advocated breathing out as the left foot hits the ground to avoid a side ache, and to cure the side ache he suggested putting your fingers into the right side of your belly to push your liver up. I actually tried the foot strike technique on my next run and concluded that I would become neurotic if I stuck with this program. However, I have had some luck with applying pressure to the sore area.

Doctor Darren Morton at the Avondale Centre for Exercise Science in Australia has been doing research on side aches, or exercise related transient abdominal pain (ETAP), for the past six years. Of the sixteen studies published in the medical journals, nine were written by Dr. Morton. The Doctor is determined to find out more about this extremely common condition, which he states nearly 60% of runners have experienced.

According to Dr. Morton side aches are most likely an “irritation of the parietal peritoneum…perhaps exacerbated by friction.” The parietal peritoneum is the outer lining of your abdomen, if you could reach beneath your abdominal muscles, you would be touching the peritoneum. Dr. Morton presents the case that side aches are not related to the diaphragm because breathing capacity is not lowered during a side ache, and horse back riding has a high incidence of side aches although breathing is not vigorous. He also argues

Split Times, page 3 against the theory that the pain arises from the ligaments that support the abdominal organs because swimmers frequently experience side aches, and swimming does not strain the ligaments.

So, when your training partner asks why you are doubled over in the middle of a run, you can intelligently tell them how irritated your parietal peritoneum is. Perhaps repeating the phrase “parietal peritoneum” ten times, quickly, will alleviate the pain, or at least distract you for long enough to regain your composure.

Unfortunately, there is very little research on how to prevent or relieve a side ache. Much of the information on the Internet is based on the theory that side aches are caused by a “pinched diaphragm” or a “muscle cramp of the diaphragm,” which according to Dr. Morton may not be the underlying cause. Based on Dr. Morton’s research some suggestions can be made. • Run regularly - people who train more days per week tend to have fewer side aches. • Don’t eat a large meal 1-2 hours prior to a run. • Avoid fruit or high carbohydrate / electrolyte drinks prior to or during a run if you are susceptible to stitches (try diluting a drink like Gatorade in half). • For those who have a more rounded posture in the mid back, performing stretches to improve your posture may be helpful. • Anticipate fewer side aches with each birthday (one of the few benefits of aging).

In addition to Dr. Morton's findings runners often report some relief with the following strategies. • Slow the pace or briefly walk. • Reach overhead and leaning to the opposite side to stretch the stitch. • Apply moderate pressure to the stitch for about ten seconds.

Hopefully, with a better understanding of side aches, researchers can provide us with improved methods to prevent and relieve this condition. Until then, keep running!

I'm Going to Be Last . . . but IT'S OK! By Donna Bays

Well, I'm proud to say that I have checked off "Run a 10K" from my goal sheet. After a brief Crazy 8 celebration period, I realized it was time to get serious. The Eastman Road Race was just seven weeks away.

My goals for the 10K were a little different from the Crazy 8 race. The main goal was the same, to finish. But this time I had a time limit. After 80 minutes the organizers would close the course and open the streets back up to traffic. So there was my mantra . . . BEAT THE BUICK . . . BEAT THE BUICK! As for not finishing last, well I knew that would be a miracle. I tried to prepare my family and friends for this very real possibility. Whenever I would tell them they would laugh and say "Oh, you won't be last!" I would look back and say "No, no, no. Really, I will probably be last and IT'S OK!" I didn't want them to be shocked or think that I had collapsed somewhere along the way.

In preparing for the 10K I came to realize a couple of things. One, runners have great control over their bodies. Two, I am no runner. I am a mother of two who didn't heed the warnings to do those ever important bladder control exercises after giving birth. All I can say is, on race day I had to choose between proper hydration and bladder control. Road races are just not designed for women like me. They had three water stations and absolutely no, I mean zero, bathrooms.

Before the Crazy 8 race I had done most of my running alone. I told myself that I enjoyed the solitude, but really I just couldn't keep up with anyone. However, my friend Cinda (a very accomplished runner – but she would never tell you that) began running with me. She was happy to let me set the pace. This change was Split Times, page 4 absolutely wonderful. On the morning of the race, Cinda and I made our way to the starting area and in a few minutes we were racin'.

As I had expected, even from the very beginning I was in the back of the crowd. I didn't dare look back. I didn't want to confirm anything too quickly. Then, after about a mile into the race, I spotted him . . . the one person I thought I could beat. He was a really big guy, I mean Shaquille O'Neal big. As he ran he looked like a tree swaying in the wind. I told Cinda my plan and she cautioned me not to go after him too fast, it was still early. So, I paced myself, just inching up on him. At mile two it happened. As I passed him the theme music from "Chariot's of Fire" played on the loud speakers of my brain. YES, I'M NOT GOING TO BE LAST!!!!

At mile four I realized the race volunteer (you know the one, the one that follows the person in last place) was circling me like a buzzard over road-kill. "Oh no" I said to Cinda. "Shaq must have quit." "Uh oh" I told myself, "I'm going to be last, but IT'S OK!"

The end of the race was absolutely wonderful. A few of the folks that I had been training with from the Track Club had stayed behind and was there to cheer me on as well as my family. And my dear friend Cinda, who could have finished several minutes before me, stepped back and let me finish in front of her. My time was 1:13:20 . . . not a Buick in sight! My father gave me a wonderful complement. He said he had watched about 300 people finish the race and I was the only one he saw smiling.

As it turned out, Shaq didn't quit. He and one other man came across the finish line just a couple of minutes later. I cheered like crazy for them. WE WERE LAST AND IT WAS OK!!

SFTC Board?? Say What??? By Brenda Fox

As a member of State of Franklin Track Club Board (how many of you already knew that – raise your hands!), I thought I’d let you know a few interesting points about your Board.

First of all, did you know that during the last couple of years your SFTC Board designated $10,000 to be placed in a high-yield CD? Did you know that Rob Schoborg, with the Board’s assistance, is working on a grant/scholarship program that would award money to different area runners and/or programs? Did you know the Board instituted a policy to award volunteer points that can be used as club dollars for race registrations, membership fees, and club merchandise? Did you also know that you can read the Board minutes on the SFTC website?

Do you know your SFTC Board Members? They are:

President: Steve Pastorek Bristol Rep: Maria Studholme Past President: David Fox Johnson City Rep: David Sullivan President-Elect: Matthew Studholme Kingsport Rep: Mark Skelton Treasurer: Jason Goodman Race Walk Rep: Bobby Baker Secretary: Brenda Fox Split-Times Editor: Rob Schoborg

There are also some other people who fill some very important roles: Bob Townsend - volunteer coordinator; Matthew Studholme – Course Measurement and King & Queen Competition; Jason and Nicole Goodman – Membership; David Fox – Race Management & Equipment and Webmaster; Tandy Fleming – Equipment; Wendy Weidner – Long Distance Series.

Without all of these people donating their time and talents, the Board of SFTC would not be able to accomplish as much as it does. Do you have to have a “specific” talent to be a Board Member? Not at all – you only need to be willing to devote a little time each month to the meetings and to have an interest in keeping a fine organization running smoothly.

Split Times, page 5 SFTC prides itself on promoting running, walking, and healthy lifestyles in the upper East Tennessee/southwest Virginia/western North Carolina area. As a means to that end, the club either owns or manages several great local races. And we’re always looking for folks to help us with these as liaisons, volunteers, or race directors. We can’t do it without the members of our club. And the Board is the entity that manages those efforts.

I started going to Board Meetings about 2-3 years ago with David, my husband, the runner. He has attended for several years because of his role as webmaster. At first, I thought he was nuts when he came home and told me how much fun the meetings could be – I hate meetings! But he would tell me about some of the lively discussions that were held around different items that came before the Board, and eventually I started going just so he wouldn’t have to repeat everything when he got home. And you know what? He is nuts, but he was right about the meetings – they are fun.

Did you know that the meetings are open to any club member who wants to attend? Any club member can attend any meeting any time of the year. And the best part? You get a volunteer point just for attending! How easy is that? If you attend all 12 meetings every year, you could almost pay for a race registration with the volunteer points you would earn. By the way, we often have dinner at the meetings – a lot of times it’s pizza and homemade cookies (thanks, Nicole). You can find the time and location of the meetings on the race calendar on the website. You learn a lot about what the issues concerning the club are – like what races we are hired to manage or own (denoted on the calendar), how we are going to promote running in the area (grant/scholarship program, Kids Festival of Miles, King & Queen competition, Long Distance Series, and the issues surrounding these), who’s submitting articles to the Split-times, who we wish was submitting articles to the Split-Times, and lots of other interesting tidbits.

Okay, reading back over this, maybe I haven’t made being on the Board or even attending a meeting sound like the most fun you can have in your life, but it is a lot more fun than you’d initially think. And the Board is a necessity. As with any good organization, a well-organized board of directors is what makes it good or even great. I think most of us would agree that SFTC is a great organization. So how about showing a little support, and coming to a meeting or two, or even volunteering for a position on the Board? You might be surprised by how much you’ll like it!

Girls Shine at 5K Event By Ani Boyd

Johnson City, TN. — Despite a little rain, 15 participants from the Fairmont Elementary Girls on the Run program shined bright as they crossed the finish line of a 5K held on Saturday, May 5 at the Liberty Bell Complex.

The 5K was the culmination of 12 weeks of preparation and training. Since February, the girls have met twice a week at Fairmont Elementary to participate in Girls on the Run.

Girls on the Run is a non-profit prevention program that encourages 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade girls to develop self- respect and healthy lifestyles through running. The unique curriculum combines physical training for a 5K running event with uplifting lessons that encourage positive emotional, social, and mental development.

“It was amazing to watch each girl cross the finish line,” said Ani Boyd, Council Director and Coach. “They worked so hard to reach this milestone, and it was wonderful for their friends and family to share the accomplishment with the girls.”

Boyd has been working for the last year to bring Girls on the Run to the Tri Cities. Fairmont Elementary is the first school to host the program.

“A year ago, I didn’t think this day would ever come,” said Boyd. “To see 15 excited girls complete the 5K was a dream come true.”

Split Times, page 6 “It was not only a big day for the girls but also for Girls on the Run of Northeast Tennessee,” said Boyd. “The phone has been ringing off the hook to start the program at elementary and middle schools in Johnson City, Kingsport, and Greeneville.”

For the 5K, each girl was paired with a running buddy from the Science Hill Women’s Cross Country Team. Several parents, siblings, and friends also completed the 5K.

Following the event, participants, friends, and family enjoyed a celebration in honor of the girls’ accomplishments. Each girl received a certificate, as well as a goody bag stuffed with healthy snacks and other goodies donated by Smoothie King, Eastman Health and Wellness, and local volunteers.

Masey Carlson, Kaye Kaye Elrod, Makenzie Grant, Taylor Kelley, Madison Marchant, Cleo Mellish, Molly Miller, Olivia Pardue, Courtney Patrick, Jennifer Rockhill, Taylor Sparks, Megan Thomas, Morgan Thomas, Hayden Veronick, and Holly Wagner completed the 5K. The girls were coached by Ani Boyd and Nicole Goodman, with assistance from Nedra Veronick and Beth Thomas.

Girls on the Run of Northeast Tennessee serves Carter, Greene, Hancock, Hawkins, Johnson, Sullivan, Unicoi, and Washington counties. For more information, visit www.gotrnetn.org or contact Ani Boyd at 423- 677-3595 or by email at [email protected].

More Girls on the Run! Article and photos by Nicole Goodman

Thought you'd like to hear a little more about Northeast Tennessee's inaugural Girls on the Run 5K on Saturday, May 5.

The event was awesome! Despite a little bit of rain, the 5K went off without a hitch. I can't tell you how proud I am of the girls. They did great! Our first girl crossed the finish line in just over 28 minutes, and she's just a 3rd grader. All of our girls finished under 43 minutes. They were truly amazing.

I ran around like a mad woman the whole time. I started with the girls, and for the first lap kept circling back to cheer everyone on. Then I turned around and ran the wrong way to catch the first girl on her second lap. I ran with her until the finish, which was on the track, and then I sprinted to the other side of the track to catch the next girl coming in. I did this for all of the girls until everyone had finished. And the whole time I'm cheering for them and screaming and being a complete nut. It was great! Jason ran the entire course with the front runner and then did an outstanding job holding up the balloon arch for the girls to finish under. The rain didn't dampen our spirits but did affect our balloons. High spirits at the finish line! That looks cold Nicole!

The girls were so excited, and as promised, they got to dump a full bucket of water on me. It was freezing!! I was completely drenched and soooo cold. I've attached a few pictures for you to see.

Split Times, page 7 I can't tell you how rewarding it was to watch those girls today. Ani and I were both in tears by the end. We can't wait to do it all again in the fall!

Thanks to SFTC for supporting GOTR through the grant program. It looks like we'll have at least 4 sites in the fall, including a Greenville site, 2-3 Johnson City sites, and potentially 1 Kingsport site. We've also received several calls from middle schools about the Girls on Track program. We're hosting a GOTR summer camp in Kingsport that will culminate with the Crazy Mile during Funfest.

We're planning to hold a GOTR 5K race next spring and will open registration to the public. More details to come... For more information about GOTR, visit www.gotrnetn.org.

Foot Rx Takes a Giant Step into Town with New Approach

Foot Rx is currently ready to open up shop in Johnson City at the Peoples Crossing Shopping Center off State of Franklin Rd. Opening is expected to be the first week in June 2007.

Foot Rx is NOT the traditional running store, but a special blend of clinical and retail knowledge that one would expect to find in cosmopolitan City.

Walk-in customers will get the feeling that they are receiving one on one service. Individualized biomechanical gait and foot/ankle structure analysis conducted by Certified Pedorthotists will ensure customers receive the right pair of shoes for their unique feet. This science-based clinical approach to shoe fitting will completely replace conventional methods.

Foot Rx will also implement a mobile service where certified experts will visit special locations to perform on-the-spot gait analysis and provide footwear recommendations to workshop attendees.

Foot Rx Running fabricates custom orthotics from scratch right to your feet. Their special blend of functional and accommodative techniques can help bring balance and relief to aching feet. These are made on site and sold at a fraction of the cost patients can expect to pay elsewhere. How is this possible? This is made possible by fabricating these orthotics right on site as you wait, not having to send them off to expensive laboratories to be made. Foot Rx uses their own orthotic fabrication system to accomplish this, greatly reducing the need for the "middle man" and greatly reducing the cost to you, the consumer.

9th Annual VIRGINIA CREEPER MARATHON Abingdon VA April 1, 2007 Virginia Creeper Trail

I am not sure that Frank Kibler would agree with this statement, but from a spectator’s perspective, the 2007 Virginia Creeper Marathon went off without a hitch. Although a bit warm and wet, the runners seemed relieved that weather did not live up to its ferocious reputation from past years. Twenty-five of the 102 finishers were first time marathoners – WOW! Take a gander at what the participants had to say…

"Despite the snafu of not finishing due to major hip issues, the race was gorgeous and the spirit of all the volunteers and assistants was terrific. I meant it when I said I want to come back next year for another shot at my 'first time' marathon." M.B., Hillsborough NC

"This was my first marathon and was quite an experience. A super job by all the volunteers, who really made the difference. I will remember them and this day the rest of my life." C.G., Kingsport TN

"I was the guy who showed up late. Thanks for letting me start anyway, and thanks for the fun course. I had a great race, and when I 'adjusted my time,' still ended up running my 2nd fastest marathon ever. I look forward to next year, and will be on time!" K.T., Lebanon VA

"Thank you for letting me fulfill my dream of my first marathon. The whole experience could be summed up as 'outstanding' for me and my family. I am proud of your volunteers’ efforts. I will take lasting memories from my experience and hope to repeat better next year." B.P., Leesburg VA

"WOW! What a great event. No frills, as advertised, but why would you need them? With a beautiful, scenic, challenging course, spirited volunteers, a really cool paperweight, a $10 entry fee and the threat of the red bandana, what more do you need? Your event REALLY brings home what some are missing by only running the 'Biggies.' I didn't have my best time, but I had a GREAT time. Thanks for the temperate weather, the gentle grade changes, and for softening up the trail to save these old legs. Thanks to a great group of volunteers who were friendly enough to 'take in' my daughter as one of their own, which paid dividends each time I heard cheers of 'way to go, Stephanie's dad!' I guess what I really want to say is, thanks for a great day and a memory of a lifetime!" S.B., Wyoming OH

"Thanks for a very fun and professional event! Excellent support, weather (yes the rain was fun!) and well placed fig bars. The course was beautiful, especially near one turnaround, with so many bright yellow flowers in the cow pastures contrasting with the grey rainy sky. Awesome!" A.B., Jefferson NC

"Thanks for such great support! Everyone was great and we had a good time. It was my first marathon, and tho not as good a time as my training runs, was a good experience. Can't say enough about the friendliness of the folks! We'll come back." M.D., Durham NC

"I am delighted to have missed a larger marathon a few weeks earlier and to have lucked into your very special event. I absolutely loved the Virginia Creeper, even with the rain. It's a class act, and I can't thank you enough. I even made a Boston qualifying time Hope to make the Creeper again." L.G., Radford VA

"Thanks for a great day and a great marathon. It was great to be back again this year among friends old and new. The volunteers were great on the course and at the finish. They add so very much to our enjoyment in running the marathon - in fact I suppose it would be impossible to run without them." C.C., Booneville MS

Split Times, page 11 "The race was well organized and we had a great time. Please let me know when we can sign up for '08! The Virginia Creeper Marathon is on our 'list' as one of the best!" N.J.M., Stephens City VA

"I had such a positive first marathon experience at the Creeper. The volunteers at all the stations were so encouraging and helpful, and the scenery every step of the way was incredible. I'm already making plans to return!" C.H., Falls Church VA

"A wonderful experience. Volunteers, course, and even the weather were all great. I am recommending your race to all my friends. My paperweight sits proudly on papers on my desk." E.S., Los Angeles CA

"This was a great place to run my first marathon. I was an early starter, and they went out of their way to make sure I got started correctly and didn't miss any turns. Overall the course is beautiful. I even saw deer running on the course ahead of me! Even in the rain, supporters were out there cheering me on. Other runners were very supportive also." M.T., Hendersonville NC {from www.marathonguide.com}

"The spectators stuck around through the rain and were wonderful cheerleaders. The crew was amazing, a group with awesome southern hospitality! The course was interesting, and the area was beautiful. All in all, a great way to spend a weekend!" M.C., Pittsburgh PA {from www.marathonguide.com}

"I loved the Creeper, and didn't mind the out-and-backs on the forgiving dirt trail. I qualified for Boston, but might have to pass on that one to enjoy the Creeper again. This marathon is a model for what can and should be done more. No big- business sponsor in the race name, and a $10 entry fee! Great, friendly, fun." L.G., Radford VA {from www.marathonguide.com}

"Not sure what drove me to sign up for this marathon. Was it the name, the cost, the honest website, or the lure of a small, friendly marathon? The answer is probably a combination of all these factors. No matter the reasons, I will never second guess my decision to do so. I had the time of my life! The marathon was everything advertised and more. The course beautiful, the race staff enthused and energetic, the volunteers cheery and hospitable, and the other runners as 'real,' friendly and supportive as you'll find. If you are looking for big crowds, medals, t-shirts, post-race parties, loud music and entertainment, skip this one. If you are looking to have one of the most memorable experiences you'll ever have running a marathon, sign up now!" S.B., Wyoming OH {from www.marathonguide.com}

14th Annual RUN THE TUNNEL Natural Tunnel State Park - Scott County VA May 19, 2007

Michael Delano claimed his fourth Run the Tunnel title in five years, literally running away from the rest of the field in the 14th installment of this 3.7 mile road/trail event on May 19th. Delano’s winning time of 23:01 on the grueling course brought him to the finish line more than two minutes ahead of runner-up Hank Clabaugh, who finished in 25:12. Close behind was Jeremy Faulk (25:19), while David Peters (25:53) and Jimmy Dodson (26:24) rounded out the top five. Gerald Thompson of Lexington, KY, claimed the men’s Masters title, finishing seventh overall in 28:23, while 11-time Tunnel veteran Buddy Thomas was the top Grand Masters finisher, 11th overall in 29:41. Jeanne Parish claimed the women’s crown, finishing 16th overall in 30:43. Vanessa Gibson was the women’s runner-up in 31:12, followed by eight-year-old Erin Hall (33:53), Emma Studholme (34:55), and Chelsea Wild (35:47). Chelsea’s mother Pat Wild took the female Masters title in 35:53, with Janice Hicks the top Grand Masters in 39:22.

Runners at this unique event were treated to even more of an adventure than usual, as road construction within Natural Tunnel State Park led to a few course adjustments. This year, there was a slight detour alongside the section of road to the cemetery. This was admittedly If they knew what they were getting Notice Wendy’s dog is lagging a tough stretch, perhaps 150 into, they would not be in such a behind…clearly she is the yards long, where runners hurry to get there! smartest one here! dipped down, then had a longer climb up the other side, all in a section of soft dirt that likened to running on sand dunes. Plus, as an added bonus, smoke from a large smoldering pile of brush was wafting about. Finally, the runners crossed the "field" on the dirt road bed, which means they had to go a bit farther along the top of the field before cutting Split Times, page 19 back into the trails. As race officials noted, this year's distance was a bit longer, perhaps 3.8 miles, but that would likely go unnoticed, since the course was harder, too. For future reference, once construction is complete, a new version of the course will be established and measured as best as practicable, and the race's "more or less" reputation will roll on.

May 2007 Racewalking Report

Happy racewalking to everyone! Summer is now getting here. Hope you’ve got yourselves a new pair of shoes to break in. Hope your training has been good. I’ve been out regular doing my walking, plus doing some light weight lifting. I believe you must have stronger upper body strength to make you go faster. The Crazy 8’s walk will be here soon and I know everyone is excited about it. Remember to listen to your body at all times and spend some time in solitary training. Find yourself a good route in your neighborhood and make it your track. Don’t forget to smell the flowers as you walk.

I read where you replace 1% of your cells everyday. This means your body is brand new today and another 1% will be new tomorrow. You have a brand new body every three months. Can you believe it? We’re actually walking and running around in a body that is in the process of becoming brand new. New Muscle, new liver, new lungs, new skin. Look down at your legs and realize that you will have new ones by the 4th of July.

You choose whether those new cells come in stronger or weaker; whether they grow stronger or decay. Your cells don’t care which choice you make. They just follow the directions you send. Run, walk, exercise and your cells get stronger. Sit down and they decay. The reason many can’t walk as they get older is due to lack of hip movements.

This should be a lesson to all of us as we go thru life. You’ve heard it said “What you don’t use, you lose it”. So choose to renew your life. Start today. Move, have positive emotions. Your cells are listening.

AMERICOURT USATF 5K RACEWALK CHAMPIONSHIPS

Don’t forget the National Championship coming October 6th. This will be the 14th year and the 28th National Championship Racewalk for Kingsport. Americourt has come aboard as our major sponsor. This year we will also be hosting the Junior National Championships for the male and female racewalkers. A lot of planning is being put into the event. Our Committee members Ruth Ketron, along with Barbara Taylor work very hard to Split Times, page 21 make it the “best” in the USA. The race will begin Oct 6th at 8 am at Americourt Inn. We hope everyone is still out there walking and training real hard for this event. On Friday the 5th of Oct at 4:30 pm we will be having a free racewalk clinic presented by Jim Carmines, a National Masters Champion. We hope to have some course workouts beginning in August. Let me know if your interested in joining us. Who knows? I might just get in the race this year and enjoy the competition with everyone. You can find information on our web page. www.kingsportracewalk.com

RACEWALK TRAINING CLASS

We will begin another five week racewalking class in September at the Kingsport Adult Education if enough people are interested. The class will begin in September and end in October. Get your shoes out and come join us for some good training! We’ll be working on Technique and other parts of a good Training Program. So if you’re interested just let the school know. The class will be held on Thursday nights from 7 till 9 and last for 5 weeks.

Tennessee State Parks Running Tour Welcome and Schedule for 2007-2008

Dear Runner,

Welcome to Tennessee State Parks Running Tour. This is the 29th year of this annual event. The Running Tour was originally started because in the 70’s there were no road races during wintertime. Nowadays, there are races every weekend all year long. With support from the Parks people, who provide traffic control and a place to hold registration and award ceremony, and with help from the local running clubs, who provide timing and post-race snacks, the Running Tour is a low-cost ($5), old fashioned alternative to the other events. By participating in at least 5 races, the accumulated Grand Prix points are rewarded with a special gift at the end of the Tour. In addition, the Running Tour is a unique opportunity to visit our beautiful State Parks and participate in a challenging race that will keep you in good shape for the rest of the year. This year there are three new courses, a 7.6 mile trail run, a 10K, and a half-marathon. Two new races have been added and one race moved to a different State Park. There are now 18 races included in the Running Tour beginning with Two Lakes Trail Run in Montgomery Bell State Park, Burns, on October 13. The other new race is Pioneer 10K in Davy Crockett Birthplace State Park, Limestone, on December 15. Frostbite Half-marathon will be held in Cedars of Lebanon State Park, Lebanon, on February 16, 2008. A new award category in the Grand Prix Split Times, page 26 competition has been added, where race volunteers will get one point for working (race directors are not eligible). The top ten volunteers will receive an award at the Tour Banquet following the last race on March 1, 2008. Good running and thank you for your support.

Tomas de Paulis, Tennessee State Parks Running Tour Director.

Come out, run and support the tour! Come out, run 2007-2008 Tennessee State Parks Tour Schedule

Split Times, page 27 Group Runs in the Tri-cities Area

5 PM “Bank” Runs in Johnson City (By Steve Pastorek):

A group of 3-8 runners meets in the parking lot of First Tennessee Bank across State of Franklin Ave from the East Tennessee State University minidome (at the south entrance of the VA Campus) @ 5:15pm Monday – Thursday (and sometimes Friday). Most of us are training for various marathons. Our workouts often follow the following format: Monday- 7 to 9 miles, Tuesday- speed work at the Science Hill outdoor track or trails, Wednesday- usually an easy day (especially if we are racing or doing a long run on Saturday). General pace varies from 7 to 8 minutes/mile with some runners running up to 9 minute miles. Our group is growing and we would like to have more people come out. We do run on the roads so you need to dress accordingly- if you think you will be out after dark (a pretty long run at this time of year), make sure and bring a reflective vest! Email Rob Schoborg at [email protected] if you have any questions. Hope to see you out on the run!

SFTC Sumer Training Program (By David Fox):

Starting on Monday Apr 30th and continuing through early September, the State of Franklin Track Club will be holding it's Summer Training Program for beginner and intermediate runners.

More information can be found at www.RunTriCities.org

Foot Rx 3 and 5 mile Group Runs in Johnson City (By Rob Schoborg):

A group of 15-40 runners meets weekly at Foot Rx-Johnson City (3131 Peoples Street, suite 404, Johnson City, TN) at 6:30 pm on Thursday. The store is located just south of the intersection between State of Franklin Ave and I-26 near K-mart. There are two different courses: one that is 3 miles long and one that is 5 miles long; both are moderately hilly. The participants usually break up into 5-8 small groups at widely varying paces (<7:00 to 10:00 minutes/mile). Steve and Allison provide Gatorade, water and popsicles after the run! Email or call Steve Pastorek ( at 423-282-2235 or [email protected]) if you have any questions and to confirm the run date/time (in case of last minute scheduling changes). Hope to see you out on the run!

Apr. 10th, 2007: Voting Members present: Mark Skelton, David Sullivan, David Fox, Matthew Studholme, Steve Pastorek, Jason Goodman. Non Voting Members present: Nicole Goodman, Brenda Fox, Bob Townsend. Guests: Wendy Weidner, Harriet Locke. Minutes from the March 2007 meeting were approved via email. Davy Crockett State Park Tour Race (Bob Townsend): Bob Townsend was contacted by Karen (?) about a State Park Running Tour race to be held at Davy Crockett State Park in Greeneville. Bob had recommended that she talk with the Park Tour Races directors. The race was approved by the State Park Tours committee. The race co-ordinator would like for SFTC to take ownership of the race. Date would be Dec. 15, 2007. Bob recommends supporting this race, and offered to be director. Motion (Steve Pastorek): SFTC to take ownership of new Davy Crockett State Park race with Bob Townsend as director. The distance must be Split Times, page 29 certified. Second by Matthew Studholme. Passed. Split Times (Steve Pastorek for Rob Schoborg): Split Times has been published, comments are positive. Rob intends to publish it four times per year. Matthew Studholme recommends emailing club members with email addresses to ask if they would prefer to have only online copies of Split Times. The option may also be added to membership forms. Grant Program (Steve Pastorek for Rob Schoborg): No formal application has been put together yet. Recommendation that guidelines for the application be compiled from the program documentation and put in a Word Document. Deadlines for 2007 will be June 1 for applications to be received, and August 15 for dispensing money. Steve Pastorek will notify Bristol Cross of Grant Program so they can apply for it. Long Distance Series (Wendy Weidner): 31 people have signed up for this race season. Nicole Goodman (Membership) will email Wendy (and all Board members) a list of all club members. Blue Plum Festival Race (Matthew Studholme): Matthew has noticed that on the Blue Plum Festival website, the Festival organizers cite a partnership between Blue Plum and SFTC although SFTC has entered into no partnership with Blue Plum. The concern is that SFTC insures a safe and well-managed course, and there have been safety issues on the Blue Plum course for the last couple of years. SFTC does not want to be made to look responsible for the lack of safety on the course. David Fox will speak to race organizers. Additionally: David Mills has approached the Blue Plum organizers about having a walk at Blue Plum. David Mills is in charge of the walk. Kids Festival of Miles and Summer Track Meets (David Fox): Everything for KFOM and Summer Track Meets is going well so far. General Membership Meeting and Speaker from ZAP Fitness (David Sullivan): David Sullivan has contacted ZAP Fitness about the possibility of having a speaker at one of our general membership meetings. Fall would be a better time for the club. ZAP Fitness does not charge a set fee, they ask for donations to be made to ZAP. David Sullivan will continue to work on this. Club Social (Mark Skelton): Mark Skelton has reserved Laurel Run Park for May 19. Time to be set. Club Trip 2008 (Steve Pastorek): Fall Creek Falls (March 1, 2008) has been chosen as the proposed Club Trip for 2008. Too late to get a club trip this year.
