Can standing in line for the can...
As we are in the midst of the HARRA Fall Race Series, let us give thanks for one of the major perks of BCRR membership: the impeccably maintained, incredibly clean, sweet smelling (at least initially) private BCRR Porta-Potties. In addition to the short lines, these potties are fully equipped with oodles of toilet paper, scented candles and a mirror! You'll never get caught when the gun goes off with your pants down and no TP in a dark, funky porta-can if you're with BCRR! We owe a huge debt of gratitude to John Phillips for building them, schelping them to every HARRA Race, and taking them and their contents back afterwards. Thank you John!
BCRR membership has it's privledges!!

-Reduced rate for last minute Koala/Luke's Locker Half-Marathon registration this weekend
The Koala Health and Wellness Centers & Luke’s Locker Houston Half Marathon and Relay is scheduled for Sunday, October 25 at Sam Houston Park in downtown Houston. This is the first race in the 2009 Houston Marathon Warm-up Series and a great way to train for the 2010 Houston half and full marathon.
As the managing sponsor, the Houston Striders is excited to offer all Houston metropolitan area running club members a special rate for one weekend only. Beginning Saturday 10/17/09 @ 12:00 a.m. and extending through Sunday 10/18/09 @ 11:59 pm, we are waiving the $5 increase fee bringing the cost of the race down to $45 for the half-marathon and $70 for the relay.
Runners can log onto online registration located at http://www.houstonhalf.com/ and should enter code HHM09 on the second page of the online entry form to receive the discount.

Marathon Training runs in India!!!
In Todd's words: "A nice 47 minute easy run with Neeraj helped me overcome my jet lag and also gave me a flavor of local surroudings"
Todd and I will travel to lower foothills of Himalayas on Friday morning and will do our little Hill repeat workouts in a beautiful breathtakig Valley of Flowers.
If, you wanna join us for your marathon training, shoot me or Todd an email and we would love to meet you and help you finetune your marathon training...;-)

Yoga for Runners
...wanted to let you know about a class I took Saturday, it was Yoga, but we concentrated on stretches for runners. It was great, you might want to post this info for some of the other runners in the club. It is on Saturdays @ TRI ON THE RUN @ 10 am. It is only $10.00 a class and Nicole took us through some great stretches. This Saturday the co-owner of Yoga One will be there to work on back stretches and some more running stretches.
