Calling All Spinners!
I haven't been spinning in f-o-r-e-v-e-r and am planning on going this Thursday night at 6 pm at the downtown YMCA. Todd Kart is the instructor who is friends with Emery; he has fairly recently moved back to Pittsburgh. (Emery had asked me if I knew of any accounting jobs for Todd, so that's how I am connected.) Let me know if you might come and I'll keep an eye out for you!

Running Movies to Watch
OK, two weeks since the MCM have very quickly slipped away with no running accomplishments to speak of. (There WAS that leisurely bike ride with Em on the Montour Trail, but that barely counts as cross-training.) I HAVE finished the third book in the Twilight series AND blazed through all 9 episodes of True Blood (Nathan was out of town), so I've done my fair share of being a couch potato. To add to that, I have some running movies to add to our list of "must see running movies":
- The Spirit of the Marathon (2008)
- Born to Run (2008)
- Run for Your Life (2008)
- The Long Green Line
- Indulgence: 1,000 Miles Under the Colorado Sky
- The Games (1970)
- The Four Minute Mile (1988)
- The Jericho Mile (1979)
- Run Lola Run (1999)
- Fire on the Track (1995)
- Forrest Gump (1994)
- Across the Tracks (1989) stars Brad Pitt
- Second Wind (1976)
- Personal Best (1992)
- Chariots of Fire - How can this NOT make the list of must see running movies?
