class=\"paragraph_style\">Hi Everyone!<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">Wow, what a start to our running &#8211; even the weather co-operated!\u00a0 It was lovely to meet you all.\u00a0 The group grew overnight, which is great but at this point there is no need to &#8216;recruit&#8217; anyone else to the group &#8211; it will become too hard to run through the city (which we will start doing fairly soon) if we have any more members.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\"><a title=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/Beginner_Program.html\" href=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/Beginner_Program.html\">Click here<\/a> for our program leading up to the half marathon.\u00a0 I know these are early days yet, but the ultimate goal is to get each of you ready to run a half.\u00a0 Some of you want that goal, others just want to run but not do long distances\u00a0and that is also fine, there is no obligation to run the half at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">You have all been introduced to Betsy and Bonnie &#8211; they (and I) have come through the beginner group in some form, so know what you will be going through over the coming weeks.\u00a0 They will be a great resource for you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">The group meets without the coaches on Tuesday mornings to repeat the run we did together the previous Thursday. \u00a0It is important that you get that second run in each week. \u00a0If you are not able to meet the group, email everyone and see if you can find someone to run with you at a different time. \u00a0On Tuesdays (or whenever you do your second weekly run), it&#8217;s critical to keep the pace slow.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">I will be out of town for the run on Thursday, but Betsy and Bonnie will both be there to lead you on the run.\u00a0 We will be introducing some 2 minute running\u00a0intervals but I am confident you will be fine.\u00a0 I look forward to hearing all about it, and then running with you the following Thursday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">Keep up the good work,<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_style\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p
