1994, Gulf Power naming a new president has been the harbinger of hurricanes hitting our area, particularly if the president holds the office more than a year. Travis Bowden was named in 1994, and we were hit the following year by hurricanes Erin and Opal. Susan Story brought Ivan and Dennis. Stan Connally recently took the helm. Watch out for 2013.

reports and other sources, the west side of Pensacola is embroiled in a deadly turf war between two families. Possibly as many as four people have been killed as a result. Law enforcement is trying to put an end to it, but neighbors fear for their safety and are reluctant to provide evidence.

The Independent News has been reporting on gangs, gun violence and the disparities in education, employment and economic opportunity for years. When we reported on the racial disparities that separate our community and keep us from being a first-class city and county (Independent News, “Black & White,” Feb. 23, 2012), the statistics on poverty, employment, health and incarcerations rates were alarming. There are no simple solutions or quick fixes. Only coordination of leadership, commitment and effort by the City of Pensacola, Escambia County and Escambia County Public School District and the black and white communities will start swinging the pendulum in the right direction. Before our paper published “Black & White,” I met with a group of AfricanAmerican ministers to discuss the statistics. Though they knew the situation in the black neighborhoods was deteriorating, the ministers were shocked to see the numbers in print. I firmly believe that the answers are in the black community, meaning white dogooders may have all the right intentions, but without listening to the AfricanAmerican community those efforts are doomed to failure. And the efforts to gain buy-in must reach beyond the regular players, who tend to take dollars for their efforts, but get little concrete results.

On Monday, August 27, the moderator of the First West Florida Baptist District Association, Rev. Lonnie Wesley III, and the president of the Baptist Minister’s Union of Pensacola, Dr. Tyler Hardeman, issued statements on the escalating gun violence. They delivered their messages in Attucks Court in front of the unit where one of the latest victims of recent gun violence was shot. “Both Pastor Wesley and I grew up in Pensacola,” said Rev. Hardeman, who grew up in Attucks Court. “We are both from West Pensacola. We know the Westside, and the Westside knows us; but this is not the West Pensacola we grew up with. This is totally unacceptable. We must put an end to this.” Rev. Wesley, who is also the pastor of Greater Little Rock Baptist Church, talked about the concerns of his congregation. “A mother found a shotgun in her teenage son’s room. She called and asked if she could bring it in. She did. Two young adults came to the church, to my office, just to ask me to take me their guns,” said Wesley. “Now we want a few more to put their guns down, too.” The ministers have banded with their fellow clergy and have promised to work with elected officials and law enforcement to end the gun violence in their neighborhoods. Amen. This is a good start. {in} rick@inweekly.net

John Miziak withdraws from Clerk of Courts race.

NPA VERSUS PARTY CANDIDATES

Write-in candidate for Escambia County Clerk of Courts John Misiak has withdrawn from the race. Misiak, who lives in Santa Rosa County, was believed to be on the ballot to close the GOP primary to Democratic and independent voters. “I wish to inform you that I withdraw as a candidate for the Clerk of the Circuit Court, Escambia County. Thank you for your and your staff’s help and professionalism,” Misiak wrote in a letter to the Supervisor of Elections. This means Pam Childers can take down her campaign signs and focus on her transition to the position. No No-Party-Affiliation (NPA) or Write-in candidate has ever won a race in Escambia County. Mindy Lynn Pare, who is on the ballot for Sheriff, hasn’t raised any money since she filed. County Commission, District 1 candidate Bobby Spencer has donated $2,000 to his account and appears to have little traction. County Commission, District 3 has two NPA candidates. Former city councilman Hugh King has spent nearly all of his $7,188 in cash contributions. He was the first in the race and the first to get his campaign signs out, most of which are now faded. Dooley Johnson has raised $775 and spent $685. Johnson was defeated in 2008 by incumbent Marie Young, 17,751 to 1,257. With the Obama campaign gearing up in Escambia County, it’s doubtful the heavy Democratic district will vote for either of them. Lumon May won all the District 3 precincts in the August 14 Democratic primary, garnering 69 percent of the vote.

There may be two exceptions—Packy Mitchell in County Commission, District 5 and Elizabeth Campbell who is the incumbent for ECUA District 1 seat. Mitchell is well known in District 5 and has raised over $12,700. Campbell was an unknown that upset Logan Fink in 2008 GOP primary. This time she has dropped her party affiliation. Campbell has only raised $770, but has name recognition.

TAKING THE RABBIT OUT OF THE POT During its Thursday, August 23 meet-

ing, the Pensacola City Council tackled Quint Studer’s Maritime Park lease, which is one step closer to closure, but still hasn’t been consummated. The Studers have been working since May on a lease deal with the city and Community Maritime Park Associates for a parcel upon which they can construct a $12 million office building. The deal became hung up on parking issues and the CMPA’s budgetary realities. Councilman Larry Johnson was appointed by the Pensacola City Council to help with the negotiations, and, after two public meetings, an agreement was reached. The CMPA board approved the proposal that had 75 percent of the lease fees flow to the CMPA instead of the city, and that caused problems for city. City Attorney Jim Messer advised the council to remove the provision in the lease that the fees went to the CMPA. He said that the same objective could be reached, but that the proposed language would endanger $10 million worth of New Market Tax Credits. He advised the council to ap-

prove the agreement without that provision because the issue was “too complex to solve in 48 hours and negotiate in public.” “The objective is going to be accomplished, but it’s going to take time,” Messer said. “It’s not as simple as turning happy to glad, you’re dealing with a tax code.” City Administrator Bill Reynolds and Finance Director Dick Barker also advised the council to remove the provision. Barker said he would advise the mayor not to sign off on an agreement that dedicated 75 percent of Studer’s lease fee to the CMPA. He said he could arrive at the same ends through different means. “I commit to work on that without committing to calling it anything other than a certain sum of money that the city wants to get to the CMPA,” Barker said, also adding that the CMPA did not have a deficit. “There’s a shortfall in their budget, but there is not a deficit at this time.” While officials appeared to agree that the issue was between the city and the CMPA, Scott Remington, Studer’s attorney, disagreed. He told the council that the agreement was a three-way deal and that he didn’t know of “a silver bullet that takes us out of that conversation completely.” The attorney suggested the council leave the provision in, possibly tweaking the language after the fact. “If the goal is to make rabbit stew, I hate to take the rabbit out of the pot,” Remington told the board. “You’ve got the rabbit, grab it.”

The council eventually voted to remove the provision, stipulating that the city would find a way to provide the CMPA with the equivalent of 75 percent of Studer’s lease fee, which is annually about 8 percent of the property’s appraised value. “It might just be easier to pull it with the supreme promise that we find that language somewhere else,” suggested Councilwoman Megan Pratt before the vote.

RAINDROPS KEEP FALLING The Pen-

sacola City Council also adopted a stormwater assessment resolution last night—a vote that must be taken annually in order to collect stormwater assessment fees. Last year, the council approved, at the mayor’s recommendation, an increase to the annual assessment from $52.80 to $68.43. No increase was proposed for FY 2013. During the meeting’s public forum, resident Dolores Curry requested that the city provide her with a list of projects for which the money had been used. “I would like to see a breakdown of where all this money is going,” Curry said. Though seven of the nine council members have served since 2008 and approved all the stormwater projects, several council members requested the list as well. Councilwoman Sherri Myers, one of the two first-term members, said her constituents would appreciate the information. “Especially in light of the situation of Burgess Road,” she said. “That hardly has a stormwater system.”

all the political news and gossip fit to print POSSIBLE RESTORE FIGHT BREWING

Councilman Larry Johnson also raised at the August 23 meeting the issue of RESTORE Act money. He noted that Escambia County would soon form an advisory board to handle the allocation of funds derived from Clean Water Act fines imposed on BP. Johnson moved that the council name Councilwoman Maren DeWeese as the city’s representative on the county’s RESTORE committee. The motion was approved unanimously. To date, the Escambia County Commission hasn’t had any joint meetings with the city council over the RESTORE funds, although county staff has met with Mayor Hayward. Escambia County Commission has the sole vote in how the Restore funds are spent in the county. The RESTORE Act will send 80 percent of the eventual total of the Clean Water Act fines collected from BP to the Gulf Coast. Florida has designated 75 percent of its share to go toward counties most impacted by the spill. At its last meeting, which was also August 23, Commission Chairman Wilson

Robertson told the board that he thought some of the RESTORE Act money heading to Escambia should be used for road work in the north of the county. “I don’t think you could find a better economic development than that infrastructure up there,” Robertson said. In September, the county commission will be further considering criteria for spending RESTORE money. The board will be putting together a committee to explore the issue. It’s uncertain if that is the committee upon which the Pensacola City Council wants Deweese to serve. The council vote could be seen as a preemptive strike to be sure they are included in the process. The strategy worked in the Studer/CMPA lease negotiations when Johnson was appointed by the council to be its representative, but Johnson was also a CMPA board member. This new appointment will be interesting to watch as it plays out, as will how much the county commission wants to get caught up in the mayor-council power struggles. {in}

“I don’t think you could find a better economic development than that infrastructure up there.” Wilson Robertson

Council approves 2013 stormwater fees. The city has invested more than $25 million toward the completion of 38 major stormwater enhancement projects. The Hayward administration made stormwater projects a priority, with six projects completed or underway for FY 2011, seven more in FY 2012, and nine projects planned for FY 2013. The FY 2013 budget that the Mayor Ashton Hayward presented in June to the council recommended additional investment of $2.3 million stormwater operations. According to his budget message, these projects represent a total investment of more than $12.9 million. The FY 2013 Stormwater Utility Fund budget is $2,656,100, which is $145,500 greater than the fiscal year 2012 budgeted level. This includes an increase to operating revenues of $48,200 and a $97,300 drawdown of fund balance. Major projects planned include stormwater enhancements in the amount

of $450,000 at DeSoto Street at Bayou Texar, $244 ,200 at Baywoods Gulley, $245,000 at Davis Highway at Valley Drive and $120,000 at Northmoor Court at Carpenter’s Creek. The Airport Stormwater Retention Pond Modification will be funded at $300,000 and Drainage Improvements at “L” & Zarragossa streets are budgeted at $335,000. A budget of $200,000 for the Carpenter Creek and Brent Lane project has also been provided and $85,000 is provided for NPDES Permit Monitoring. This budget and list of projects were presented in July to the city council during its two budget workshops. The council made no amendments, but they may do so during the September budget hearings. If Myers wishes to redirect the funds to her district and Burgess Road, then she will have an opportunity to do so, if she can get four more votes. The mayor can veto the amendment, if he desires.

GUNS IN THE SUN

Florida Considers Open-Carry Amidst Summer Shootings By Jeremy Morrison

Laid out in long rows and spread out across vendor tables, an arsenal both literal and cultural stretched from wall to wall. Everything from Remington deer rifles to Saturday night specials and ankle holsters. There were old guns and new guns. Expensive and cheap. In the back of the hall, a group of people began to gather for the weekend’s final concealed weapons class. Over near the survival guides and sniping manuals, a stun gun salesman repeatedly triggered an electric jolt, sending its jagged hissing bouncing off the walls. August 30, 2012

The American gun show could be viewed as a flea-market flavored celebration of the country’s affinity for guns. Since its founding, America has taken its arms seriously. The matter is written into our constitution in the form of the Second Amendment. In some camps, the issue is intertwined with such lofty ideas as liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

The laws are lean and more people are packing than ever before in the Sunshine State. “I think we have more concealed weapons permits than any other state because Floridians care about their right to bear arms,” Gov. Rick Scott said this month in a Fox News interview.

“We can sometimes hope that just changing the law will make all bad things go away. It won't.” Mitt Romney In New York City, Mayor Michael Bloomberg has needled the issue throughout the summer. Pushing for tougher gun legislation in July, he suggested that police officers go on strike until lawmakers addressed the issue of guns. “I don’t understand why police officers across this country don’t stand up collectively and say, ‘We’re going to go on strike. We’re not going to protect you unless you, the public, through your legislature, do what’s required to keep us safe,’” Bloomberg said, later clarifying that he wasn’t being literal. The responses from Republicans following the summer’s shootings have been different. Where gun-control advocates see an opportunity for tougher regulation,

arms enthusiasts have taken the opportunity to double-down and reload. After the Texas A&M shooting, Gov. Rick Perry said gun legislation was best left to individual states and rejected the idea of greater restrictions. He veered into former NRA President Charlton Heston’s “pry it from my cold, dead hands” territory, vocalizing the fear of many gun owners that their arms will one day be wrested away by their government. “When it gets back to this issue of taking guns away from law-abiding citizens and somehow know that’s going to make our country safer, it’s just I don’t agree with that,” he said. “Texans, I will suggest to you, bwy and large a majority of them—a large majority of them—believe that law-abiding

men and women should be able to have their weapons. Criminals are never going to listen to the laws. They’re always going to have weapons or whatever source they want, whether legal or illegal, and I think it’s wise for the people of the state of Texas to be able to defend themselves when there is a law-breaker that comes into their midst with a weapon.” The Republican presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, has also shown no will to toughen up gun legislation. He addressed the issue shortly after the Colorado shooting. “ We can sometimes hope that just changing the law will make all bad things go away. It won't,” Romney said. “Changing the heart of the American people may well be what's essential, to improve the lots of the American people." Elected officials like Florida’s Sen. Evers would never dream of tightening gun legislation. He sees this summer’s series of shootings, if anything, as a reason to carry a gun. In the case of the Colorado theater shooting, Evers feels it may have gone differently if members of the audience had been carrying weapons as well. “You know, how many lives would it have saved?” Evers said.

GUN CRAZY, GUN COUNTRY

Laws regulating guns differ from state to state. The Brady Campaign ranks them with a color-coded map, with more regulation being better.

California—with heavy regulation and policies such as only being allowed one handgun purchase per month—is dark green, with an 81 out of a 100 rating. It’s the only dark green state on the map. Most of the country is colored red, denoting a poor ranking. Florida, for example, has received a three out of 100 ranking from the Brady Campaign. “So, obviously, Florida does not have the laws that they need,” said Malte. If the National Rifle Association, however, ranked states via a color-coded map, Florida would undoubtedly be painted positively. The organization has seen a lot of bills go its way in Tallahassee. Some credit for this success should probably go to Marion Hammer, former president of the NRA and current Florida lobbyist. She has been a primary bulldog on the gun-rights side of the debate for years, stepping onto the field in the mid-1970s and becoming the NRA’s first female president from 1995 to 1998. The former NRA head has been instrumental in getting a variety of pro-gun bills passed in Florida. Hammer recently made it known that she intended to try for opencarry in the state again during the next legislative session. "We are going to address the problem of law-abiding gun owners exercising their Second Amendment rights, because they're being harassed," Hammer said. "The goal of the new bill will be exactly as it was in 2011—to protect law-abiding people who have a license to carry."

"The goal of the new bill will be exactly as it was in 2011—to protect law-abiding people who have a license to carry." Marion Hammer Proponents of open-carry efforts in Florida point to cases in which citizens have had problems because they apparently revealed their concealed weapons accidentally. Legislators attempted to deal with the issue in 2011, but Hammer has said they didn’t sufficiently address the problem and that the NRA is pushing for straight open-carry. She’ll likely find a sympathetic audience in Senator Evers. He has been a dependable voice in Florida for gun-rights proponents like the NRA. The senator was instrumental in Florida’s previous open-carry attempt, as

well as the Firearm Owners’ Privacy Act, otherwise known as the Docs vs. Glocks bill, which is currently being questioned by a federal judge. In 2011, Evers was behind a bill seeking to allow guns on college campuses. He said professors had approached him over the issue, expressing a desire to arm themselves on campus. “ You know, they feel vulnerable,” Evers said. The senator pulled the bill after a slain student’s father made a plea on the house floor and asked legislators to reconsider the effort. The man’s daughter had been

killed when an AK-47 accidentally went off inside a frat house party. Evers was also involved in Florida’s Stand Your Ground legislation, which allows a person to shoot rather than retreat if they feel threatened. The law got a good amount of attention following this year’s shooting of teenager Trayvon Martin by neighborhood watch gunman George Zimmerman. “I think Stand Your Ground is right where it needs to be. I don’t think there needs to be any tweaks to Stand Your Ground,” Evers said. “That’s what the court system is for.” While Evers said he wasn’t sure if he’d be the sponsor for the 2013 open-carry bill— “It’s still too early to tell.”—he should certainly be considered a contender for the project. Judging by his past efforts, the gun lobby would be hard pressed to find a better friend in Florida.

"I don’t think there needs to be any tweaks to Stand Your Ground. That’s what the court system is for.” Evers

TIPTOEING THROUGH FLORIDA’S WILD WEST

Watching over her inventory of handguns inside the Pensacola fairground exposition hall, a vendor took a moment to consider the open-carry question. A number of states already allow the practice.

“It’s a good idea,” she said after some thought. “Because we have a right to do that.” The vendor said she didn’t think many gun owners would take advantage of the open-carry privilege, but that the sight of armed citizens could help prevent crime. It’s something gun-rights proponents note frequently. “I think it would stop someone from doing something when they saw six people with guns standing off to the side,” she said. At the front of the hall, an NRA volunteer sat behind a recruitment table. He took up the same thread of logic. “It would deter criminals,” said Frank Kozlowski, contrasting this country’s legislative environment with countries with tighter controls in place. “Like Western Europe, crime is rampant. The criminal has no fear of what might happen—I don’t see how a person could put their mother on public transit—you know, they break in the house and the worst they can expect is to be chased out.” Over at the Brady Campaign, Malte doesn’t see it that way. He’s against people “flaunting their sidearms,” and thinks the general public is unnerved by the practice.

“Instead of trying to make guns available to everyone all the time, they should be passing laws to keep guns away from dangerous criminals.” Malte “People think that the person may be there to rob the place or shoot up the place,” Malte said. In 2011, the Florida Sheriffs Association took a similar position when open-carry made the rounds in Tallahassee. The organization has said it will do the same next year. When the first presidential debate takes place in Denver on Oct. 3, Obama and Romney will square off mere miles from the sites of both the Batman-screening massacre and the 1999 Columbine High School incident, in which 12 students and one teacher were shot to death, and 21 people were wounded. The Brady Campaign has sent a letter to moderator Jim Lehrer requesting that he toss the topic of gun violence into his mix of questions. The letter states, “During the next presidential term, 48,000 more Americans will be murdered unless we do something about it.” The group tiptoes around a political land mine and clarifies in the letter that the country should explore “solutions that recognize the Second Amendment right to bear arms.” “Instead of trying to make guns available to everyone all the time, they should be passing laws to keep guns away from dangerous criminals,” Malte said. In Florida, Sen. Evers doesn’t buy into such logic. He sees the tragedies of this summer as clouding the conversation with emotion. “It goes back to a lot of folks not using common sense when they talk about this issue,” Evers said.

Welcome to Gunny Florida

Sunshine State’s Firearm Legislation SB 436: (2005) Stand Your Ground law allows people who feel they are in grave danger to use deadly force to protect themselves HB 687: (2006) Gives public records exemption to concealed carry weapon license holders, allowing people to own guns anonymously HB 503: (2008) Allows gun owners to bring a firearm to work, as long as it is locked inside a car SB 948: (2008) Increases time-length of concealed gun license from five to seven years HB 315: (2010) Prohibits adoption agencies from requiring prospective adoptive parents to disclose information about gun ownership HB 155: (2011) Prohibits medical practitioners from asking patients about whether or not they own a gun HB 5601: (2012) Reduces the maximum fees for concealed weapons license from $85 to $70 CS/HB 463: (2012) Allows people under the age of 21 to obtain a gun license if they have military experience Regardless if Lehrer brings up guns during the Colorado presidential debate, it seems unlikely that gun legislation in America will shift too far from the NRA’s playbook. At least not in Florida. {in}

Going the Distance

The Galloway Method Takes Runners Far

by Jennie McKeon

From L to R: Trish Taylor, Elisabeth Soileau, Jessica Forbes, Jay Surti If you told Trish Taylor that one day she would be running marathons—that’s plural—she would have laughed at you. “I was the kid not picked for sports,” she said, shaking her head. “I ran in the past. It was nothing I ever committed to long term.” She joined the Pensacola Galloway running group in 2009 and now has become that person. That person that can withstand a marathon and still have energy, that person that runs at 6:30 on a Saturday morning. Sure, she’s lost weight. She tends to feed her body better foods to improve her running. She claims to hardly ever get sick. But what really made Taylor stick to the Galloway program is the motivation you get from achieving a seemingly hard to reach goal, and being around encouraging people. “It’s about seeing what the human body can achieve,” she said. “I’m motivated by being with people. I tried Zumba, but you have to pay too close of attention. I really enjoy committing to something and seeing it through.” “My plan is to age without taking drugs,” Taylor adds. “The more you lookout for yourself, the better it is for your health.”

AN OLYMPIC METHOD

The Galloway method was developed by Jeff Galloway, a member of the 1972 Olympic team. Galloway’s philosophy is to run injury free using walk breaks. “Since I’ve started running, the worst injury I’ve had was a blister,” Taylor said. According to Galloway’s website, walk breaks significantly speed up recovery because there is less damage to repair. Walk August 30, 2012

breaks early in a race erase fatigue, and toward the end of a race, walk breaks will reduce or eliminate overuse muscle breakdown. Those runners you see cross the finish line out of nowhere could very well be using the Galloway method. “I have a friend that I ran a 10k with,” Taylor said. “She ran the whole race and we used the Galloway method. We beat her. If you take a break you have

more to give.” When you walk, and for how long you walk, during a race depends on how fast you run a mile. When you join the Galloway group you run what is called the magic mile as fast as you can and the program director will determine the ratio at which you run and walk. Jackie Brown, the program director of not only the Pensacola Galloway group, but also the Santa Rosa Island Triathlon, ran her first marathon at the age of 44. In the eight years that she began using the Galloway method (six of which she has been the program director of Pensacola Galloway) she has run 11 marathons and too many shorter distance races to count. Brown didn’t intend on starting a Galloway group, but after using the method with a friend to run her first marathon she was pleasantly surprised with the results. “On race day we got to 20 miles and I said to myself, ‘This isn’t so bad,’” she said. “When we were done with the race we said, ‘We gotta tell people about this program.’” And because you run injury-free you have less recovery time from a marathon. “The day after the marathon we got manicures and pedicures—and ice cream,” Brown said with a laugh. Brown became a certified Galloway trainer once she knew it worked. “We have a very high success rate,” she said. “People are reaching their goals of running half marathons and marathons. If you follow the program the results are exactly what you want them to be.”

A GROUP EFFORT

I would have never imagined a few years ago that running would become a part of my life, that I'd be dragging myself out of bed to run most Saturdays at 6:00 or 6:30 a.m.” The group hasn’t just changed her Saturday mornings but her overall attitude. “Basically it's taught me that anyone can take control of their health,” Forbes said. “Once I began running, not only did I lose weight, but I also feel better in general. Anytime I don't want to get out of bed to run, I tell myself: you'll feel better afterward.” The Galloway method isn’t just for beginners either, after all, an Olympian did create it. Soileau ran track in high school and college and loved the idea of combining running and walking in a race. “I can complete a race just as fast as some people who run the whole thing and not be as tired and recover quicker,” she said. “What's not to love about that?”

Echoing Taylor, Brown notes that running is a group effort. “Everybody is depending on the group,” she said. “We run rain or shine, but not in the lightning.” While individuals or small groups run throughout the week, it’s important that everyone show up for the long distance weekly runs. “The idea of doing 12 miles on your own is depressing,” Taylor said. And if no one else is available, your Galloway leader is a phone call away. “When I was training for the Pensacola Beach marathon Jackie came and ran with me in the pouring rain,” Taylor said. After running miles upon miles with people, you develop more than just a workout buddy, but true friendships. The group is planning to sign up for a race that benefits breast cancer research in honor of a running mate.

Paul Epstein’s Tips for Running Wild by Jennie McKeon

Paul Epstein, owner of Running Wild, has been running for over 30 years. He and his wife, Cherie, opened the store in 2000, helping locals purchase the proper running gear as well as hosting running programs for beginners and advanced athletes. They opened a second store in Fairhope, Ala. in 2010. IN: What are a few tips for anyone wanting to start a running program? EPSTEIN: Seek expert advice. Running seems like a relatively simple activity (and it is), but one can definitely do it wrong, or not as correctly as one could

with guidance from an expert. Start with the attitude that it's an activity that you will do forever, so invest some time in the right equipment and advice and guidance to help meet your goals. IN: What items are must-haves for runners of all levels? EPSTEIN: Correct shoes and socks are, of course, number one. Shoes should fit correctly based on a person's biomechanics, body type and size and running and/or walking goals. After shoes and socks the correct apparel (tops, shorts, sports bra, et cetera) is really important. Correct apparel not only helps one feel good and confident about getting

out and running, but also helps prevent chafing, blisters, dehydration and increases the chances for a positive and lasting experience. IN: What are the Running Wild running groups, and what are the requirements to join? EPSTEIN: We have many groups that start at different times of the year and all culminate with an event. They range from a beginner's 5k to the marathon, including sprint and Olympic distance triathlon. For our beginner 5k group there are no pre-requisites, just an attitude for positive change. And the other programs have starting require-

ments based on the specific program, for instance, for those wanting to join the Double Bridge Run program should be able to run/walk three miles comfortably. Our goal in all our programs is to create a positive atmosphere in which our participants experience life changing, long-term results. With nearly 20 coaches on our staff, we're able to effectively connect with anyone who participates in our programs. We also have several different casual group runs (non-coached) that meet at 6 a.m. on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. And our now world famous Phat Girlz (women only) running and walking group that meets on Fridays at 9:30 a.m. {in}
