Head-To-Head Racing? Age-Adjusted
Performance?
TIME TO STEP UP…
Announcing…the 2012 Edition of the Coach’s
Handicap Run & Breakfast!
For those who remember (or still try
to forget), this intra-club event pits you against your teammates, taking into
account your current level of physical fitness…or lack thereof.
Give me your HONEST estimate of how
fast you can run a 10K right now, and we will handicap your starting time, and
run a “fitness-adjusted” 10K in Palos Verdes on Saturday morning July 21. In
this race, slower runners start first with the biggest time adjustments, and we
will hold back the faster runners…if we do this right, there should be a shoulder-to-shoulder
tie (of everyone) at/near the finish line.
So come on out and be a part of a
unique event…Run the race, then stay for breakfast!
