TejasTrails.com is putting on a race in March at Camp Eagle (Nueces Trail runs). If there is interest we can organize an overnighter to preview the trails there prior to the race. They have large bunkhouses and cooking facilities that accommodate groups well.

I was contacted by some of our runners asking about having a marathon clinic for folks who are running a marathon for the first time or haven't run in a while. There would be a small fee to attend ($5-10). We would cover preparation, tips during the race and recovery. As far as prep work, other than the training, we could discuss carrying fluids and supplements as opposed to what is available on the course, night before, morning of, bathroom challenges and stories, etc. I'm also looking for people who have run the San Antonio Marathon the past two to three years and who are willing to share their experience. Also looking for a place to host this. I need to get at least 15 people who say they will come.

Based on previous polling Alamo Running Buddies is planning *supported* long training runs. These will be early morning runs (just after sunrise), before it gets hot, on selected Saturdays. They will be on a country highway SW of town near Somerset, with excellent visibility for traffic safety, full width shoulders, in the country with minimal traffic volume. *Supported* means that there will be crew vehicles with ice, cold water, food, supplements, and so on. Carpooling will be available. It will be an out and back run, so the distance can vary from 8-32 miles based on personal needs and abilities. There will be a small cost to participate (~$15) to cover the cost of ice, food, gasoline, water, supplements, and so on. Please indicate whether you can commit to participate or not. We need to have at least 8 people to make this worth the effort. Also indicate whether you could volunteer to crew and if you have a van or SUV. We will need at least 4 volunteers and 2 vehicles.

We are looking at having a trail running clinic with pro coach and athlete Amanda McIntosh. There would be a small cost to attend ($10-$20).
