Giving back
This morning I embarked on the next chapter of my RNY journey, which I'm sure is going to prove even more rewarding than crossing the finish line of my first marathon. I'm the new coordinator of a couch to 15K program with our local running club. This is the same program that transformed me into a runner almost 2 years ago.
With three marathons, three half marathons and several shorter races under my belt, it's hard to believe that I've been running just under 2 years. I'm hoping that I'll be able to provide the same inspiration to these new recruits as I received that first year.
We started with 7 people this morning and I expect the group to grow to about a dozen by next week. After orienting everyone to the program, we did our warm-up, stretches and walk/run intervals for about 16 minutes. It's truly gratifying to know that I have the opportunity to share what I've learned and help others achieve their goals.

The 15K is indeed the Utica Boilermaker. Last year nearly 10,000 people finished the race making it one of the largest 15Ks in the nation (if not the largest). You'll have to stop by the Utica Roadrunner tent after the race and say hello. The organizers certainly throw a great party.
Is this your first Boilermaker?

I ran the Boilermaker last year at the urging of a friend. I had an absolute blast!! The race course was very nice and the crowds are amazing. I don't know how anybody could have a bad time running the race. I had a bit too much fun at the after race party - reminded me of an out of control keg party. I can't wait to do it again and I will definitely stop by the Utica Roadrunners and say hello.
