Crissey Field Training Run: Ran 11miles and getting ready for teens..



July 19th, Saturday - This is a special day for Asha runners. Coordinators were planning for a long run at SFO before SF half marathon event so that runners can get a feel of the course. It is worth doing it. Thanks to the coordinators and volunteers to make it a memorable run for all us. It was a cloudy day. Seven of us van-pooled in my nissan van and didn't feel the drive at all.

Drill was same. After short warm-up & stretching, we did run 11 (eleven) miles. At Fort Mason, we have to climb a small hill too. It was a good practice run for the SF-half. After the run, we had excellent vegie burgers from food team. At the end, we felt bit cold. This is a warning that we need to better prepare for colder SF marathon start.

Fund raising committee had a contest for a best runner net page. Winners are:
1. Vamsi gadey ($100 gift certificate from Sports Basement) - Excellent page. Deserves the prize.

2. Balaji Srinivasan ($75 gift certificate from Sports Basement) - 10 reasons to donate for him
