Marin Youth Trail Runs

Parents and Runners,

This Sunday I am hoping for a good turn out as we will be doing a special Christmas run to the Tamalpa christmas tree hidden high on Mount Tam where we will do some tree decorating and take in the views before descending. Bring a few sturdy christmas ornaments to share, (I will also have ornaments for runners).

**We will not be meeting at Tennessee Valley**

For the second year running, Tamalpa youth team won first place in their age group at the Christmas Relays, I have your prizes, please claim next time we meet up.

2014 Youth Dipsea Training will begin March 2nd and continue through June 8th. Long runs will be 3 sundays per month 10am at various Marin trailheads, with 1 Sunday Per month reserved for racing. For dedicated runners we will also have group Interval and Tempo Runs on Thursday 5:30 at Tennessee Valley. dedicated runners are also encouraged to participate in Tamalpa track workouts Tuesdays 6:30 @ San Rafael High School. (see attached flyer)

We will once again include little runners (ages 6-10) in the youth Dipsea training if we are able to get an adequate number of participants that preregister for the entire season.

High School athletes are encouraged to participate on Sunday’s only as to not overlap with their track/soccer/lacrosse training schedules.

Upcoming Races:

Mad Dash Midnight Glow Run 1mile/5k – New Years Eve 10pm – Northgate Mall -San Rafael

Hot Chocolate 15k/5k – January 12 – Golden Gate park Music Concourse – San Fransisco

Happy Trails,
