Weekend Outlook

Wasn't it like 20 degrees warmer yesterday?!? Anyways, we have an exciting weekend of racing... Sunday is the Magnificent Mile Race! This is the NC USATF 1-mile road championship, and promises to be fast. The men's race starts at 2PM, and the women's race is at 2:20PM. I know we have a lot of teammates competing, so even if you're not, go down and cheer! The Wilmington Tri is on Saturday, and the Oylers and Marty (and perhaps others) are racing. There are probably a few other 5K's and tri's going on too.

For World Record Friday and the upcoming Mag Mile... there were a lot of random 1-mile running records. However, I decided to go with this one: the fastest 100 x 1-mile relay (female) was completed in 9:23:39 in December of 1999 by the The Canadian Women's Miler's Club. This means that they averaged ~5:37 pace (as long as I did my math right... I did round down). And, watch out for Reggie at the start (I kind of want to know what that comic was about):
