All Ultra-Runner Veterans and Ultra-Runner Novices:
"If you get tired in a trail race, lie down in the middle of the trail in such a way that no one could pass you, without waking you up ------- it will insure your finish line position."

Oh, The Weather Outside Is Frightful.....
It's time to go indooors Dirty Red. Join me if you can at Merrillville H.S. 's indoor track on Thursday, 15 January, for a warm workout of four 800's. A mile and 1/2 warm up and cool down will give us a nice five mile total. Be ready to run 6:30p.m. ish.
If this works well, we should continue an indoor workout for another 5 weeks or so. Since we are all distance runners, the emphasis will be on repeats of greater distance, increased numbers and shorter recoveries.

New Year's Poem by Frank Johnson
It was new Years Eve, Just past noon
Everyone was anticipating year 2009 soon
2008 will soon be in the past
but true Dirty Red will still run so fast
The miles are gone and too many to add
But new ones await so don't get too sad
Jill was successful and will be Boston Bound
So if you look for her in April, thats where she will be found
Fast Jen had her good year and conquored them all
But, Clinton this year..man will it take a fall.
Misty our Red leader was inspiring all year.
so when you see her running, stop and give her a cheer.
Brian is Brian and every year is the same
he will run at 100 and make the Red Hall of Fame.
Jim turned to ultras and finished them all
he should take a big bow and keep standing tall.
I give my name of "Rock" to Betty this year...
she finished her ultra after getting hit by a deer.
as for me...what's next?. will I go forever?
Most likely so, as I see the end as never
So new races in 09 are sure to abound.
keep searching the net to see what is found.
May Happiness and health tonight come with your beer.
so tomorrow starts, I hope, for everyone A happy New year!!
Frank.
