Lake Grapevine Runners and Walkers September 2016 Dear Lake Grapevine We have a lot of great events in store this month! The Annual RAW Luau is Saturday, September 3, graciously hosted by Tom and Kim Shetina again this year (details are below). Our monthly RAW 20th Anniversary event (appropriately, on the 20th) coincides with our Third Tuesday of the Month Social Run at Grapevine Craft Brewery, so we'll spice it up a bit this time. We had to cancel the ROGA event in August due to rain, but we have rescheduled it for this month. See below for more details. I'll only bug you one more time about the Double Trouble 5K & 10K. Registrations are going well, and we have some exciting new sponsors, as well as a bunch of our longtime supporters. Thanks to Race Director Stan Pollard for all his hard work! Be sure to mark Saturday, October 22 on your calendar to volunteer, run, or both. We couldn't put on such great races without your help! If you're looking for a fun "Off to the Races" event, don't miss the Fort Worth Runners Club Labor Day Run on Monday, September 5 at Montgomery Plaza in Fort Worth. You can still register online through the end of today for $33 for the 15K or $23 for the 5K. We're hopefully emerging from the miserable part of Texas running now, so be sure to come out and join us to train for your upcoming races or just because it's more fun than sleeping. See you at the lake! Chris Morris LGRAW President Please note that your LGRAW membership expires on LGRAW Annual Luau on September 3

20 Fun & Fascinating Facts about RAW By Kelly "K2" Richards 1. The clubhouse used to have a wooden deck along the front of the building and along the south side of the building extending approximately six feet beyond the end of the building. 2. RAW has manned an aid station at the Dallas Marathon (formerly the White Rock Marathon) every year since 1997, with the exception of 2013 when the race was cancelled due to an ice storm. The RAW aid station was originally at mile 18 and has moved around the course multiple times through the years. 3. In 1999, members constructed the trail kiosks that are in place at the first and second water stops, the softball parking lot and near the fourmile mark. 4. The first Hound Dog Hustle 5K and One Mile race was held on May 13, 2000, and was directed by then president Eileen Fontaine. Randa Foster directed the last one held on April 24, 2010. 5. In July 2002, Jeff Galloway, famous for his run/walk/run method, came to North Texas to host a run/walk followed by a Q&A session. He chose RAW for the location of this event. 6. In 2007, RAW received a Certificate of Appreciation for being a 50th Anniversary of the President's Council on Physical Fitness Partner. 7. John Bush was the race director for the first 10 years of Bold in the Cold 5K and 15K races (19992008). 8. For several years, Gregory "Spareribs" LaMothe penned an article for the FOOTPRINT called "Ask Spareribs". Think a runner's version of "Dear Abby" satire. Every article was filled with humor, but the Runner's Whirl (a Runner's World spoof) and "Somebodies or Nobodies" articles were classics that even years later people still talk and laugh about them. 9. In 2009, our website won "Outstanding Website of the Year" from the Road Runners Club of America. 10. Double Trouble 5K and 10K, now in its 17th year, has been held as early as October 5 and as late as November 15. 11. In June 2008, the club went retro with a tiedye party. Jack Green coordinated the event and provided the dying supplies. Everyone brought whatever they wanted dyed, and some very interesting shirts were created. 12. At the 2010 Cowtown Marathon, Thomas "TO" Okazaki, a former RAW president, ran his 100th marathon/ultra in a Boston Qualifying (then) Personal Record time of 3:30:55. His 100th https://ui.constantcontact.com/visualeditor/visual_editor_preview.jsp?agent.uid=1125566532758&format=html&print=true

FOOTPRINT September 2016
marathon was only seven years after his first. Perhaps even more miraculous than this, TO ran his 200th marathon/ultra at the 2016 Cowtown! 13. From 20102012, Jack Hase produced and timed the Summer Series 5K races. The 2010 series was called the Gro, Bait, Ice Summer Series (3 races). The 2011 series was named the Medal of Summer (2 races). The 2012 series was named VX VK Summer Race Series. The two races were XV VK1 and XV VKII. The races were free to members and $5 for the running public. This was a way for runners to test their fitness while RAW (Jack) tested our timing system. 14. Sunstone Fit Southlake is a big supporter of RAW. They've held multiple RAW members only yoga classes and regularly donate passes to our races, special events and volunteer recognition events. On the First Sunday of every month, our members are able to attend free classes at any DFW's Sunstone. 15. RAW was a cash sponsor of the 2012 Fort Worth Runners Club Labor Day Kids K. The race is free for children to participate. Click here to see photos. 16. RAW's Couch to 5K (C25K) led by RRCA certified coaches, Tony Flesch and Janet Dixon, debuted at the 2013 Double Trouble 5K and 10K ("DT"). Every DT 5K and Bold in the Cold 5K since have had a free C25K program available. 17. In 2013, RAW won a "largest group" trophy from the xSightment Run 5K held in Colleyville. The trophy sits in the clubhouse near the coffee pots. 18. The backyard at the clubhouse used to have a big shade tree that was unhealthy and rotting. It was cut down in 2014 at the request of then president Joe Luccioni due to safety concerns. Soon thereafter, the pergola was built by our members. 19. Prior to 2015, the worst Lake Grapevine flooding since the club's existence was in 2007. The 2015 high lake level and consequent flooding far exceeded that of 2007. Previous to 2015, 1989 was the last time that Dove Road (near the first water stop) was covered by water. 20. In 2016, RAW established a RRCA Convention and Coaching Certification Grant Program. Two members, Chris Morris and Jack Hase, attended the convention. Three members, Kathryn Gleghorn, Sandie Nathan and Elizabeth Rodriguez attended the Coaching Certification course. The grant program was recognized, by the RRCA, as a club best practice and shared with all RRCA clubs in an article penned by Kathryn Gleghorn published in "Inside Running".

Flashback Footprint Article: March 2011
Twenty Years Running Editor's Note: This article from Mark Miller first appeared in the March 2011 Footprint. During our 20th year as a club, it seemed appropriate to highlight this article about Mark's 20 years of running. March 1st of this year will be my 33rd birthday. March 2nd will mark the 20th anniversary of my first race. It would have been convenient had that first race fallen on my birthday, but the makers of the junior high track schedule rather rudely chose not to consult with me. I distinctly recall that race 2nd place in the 7th grade 1,600 meters. It would have seemed fitting to place first in that first race, but once again, I was not consulted beforehand. Since then, I have run over 400 races and untold miles. Below are 20 observations from my first 20 years on the run. 1. Running is simple, but not easy. Put one foot in front of the other. Repeat. Get up tomorrow and do it again. 2. Despite running's simplicity, the moment you think you've figured it out, a poor race, injury or other setback will show you otherwise. https://ui.constantcontact.com/visualeditor/visual_editor_preview.jsp?agent.uid=1125566532758&format=html&print=true

3. Consistency is the most important aspect in training. Everything else is a footnote. 4. Running is rarely an athlete's first choice. Many of us find the sport only after discovering that we are too slow, short, or uncoordinated for team games. This discovery is typically a blessing in disguise. 5. There are no shortcuts. You can't fake fitness and the finish line clock does not lie. 6. Running fosters a disciplined lifestyle that, if carried over, benefits your work, finances and overall health. 7. Without challenging, realistic and regular goal setting, a fitness routine drifts aimlessly. 8. Motivation must come from within. If you're running for anyone other than yourself, it will not last. 9. Running reveals more weaknesses than strengths. 10. It is better to be 90% fit and 100% healthy than 100% fit and 90% healthy. 11. Experience should keep us from being injured. I have yet to meet a runner for whom this is actually true. 12. Ignore your instincts when it comes to running; they're usually wrong. 13. When you find a shoe model you really like, buy two pairs. It will soon be discontinued. 14. Just when you think a run cannot possibly get any worse, believe me, it can. 15. Running is a great form of therapy, and is substantially cheaper than a psychiatrist. 16. Some of the most interesting, fun and neurotic people I've ever known have been runners. 17. Runners have an undeniable bent toward goofiness. Normalcy is for people with poor imaginations. 18. Running does not guarantee good health. Diet, rest and genetics are at least equally important, and maybe more so, in determining health and longevity. 19. Running is a fine metaphor for life but a poor substitute for it. 20. Keep it fun. If you come to regard running as work, you're missing the point. Work is that thing we do during the week so we can afford to play, which is what running should be. In a November 1, 1971 Sports Illustrated story by Kenny Moore, the great New Zealand runner Jack Foster said, "I run from three to fifteen miles five days a week and twenty on Sunday over hilly sheep farming country or through forest. I don't think of running as 'training.' I am not prepared to let it be anything but one of the pleasures of my life." For 20 years, that is just what running has been for me. I'm looking forward to the next 20.

Rise Above The Flood 5K By Belynda Warner As a local business owner and proud sponsor of the "Rise Above the Flood 5K", put on by Jeff Barnhart and Ray Harris on July 30, I was overwhelmed by the flood of support from the running community. While the majority of runners came from right here in Grapevine, people from 43 other cities came out to run and raise funds for Grapevine's flood recovery efforts. Read on to find out how much was raised! The "Rise Above the Flood 5K" was the brainchild of Jeff "Barney" Barnhart. He had been working for years to create a local 5K that could be run on the streets of Grapevine. The opportunity to partner with local crowd favorite, Grapevine Craft https://ui.constantcontact.com/visualeditor/visual_editor_preview.jsp?agent.uid=1125566532758&format=html&print=true

Brewery, and raise funds for flood recovery was just the icing on the cake. It was a proud moment for Barney who wanted to give back to the community he's called home for the past 25 years. With the key help of Grapevine Parks and Recreation Board Member Ray Harris, they were able, after many hurdles to get the city to finally approve the race plan. The RAW Board of Directors agreed to sponsor the race early on by promoting the race. Many members volunteered. Some ran, and some did both helping to make the race a success. In all, 545 runners registered for the race. The race started and ended between Grapevine Craft Brewery and The Rec of Grapevine. The course was either fast or challenging, depending who you asked. An after party was held in the brewery parking lot and beer garden, complete with sponsor giveaways and a food truck. The race drew several first timers, as well as many seasoned veterans, who turned in personal best performances. You can check the results here, and below are several of the RAW members with top place finishes. (We hope that we haven't missed anyone!) A check for $8,250.00 will be presented to the City of Grapevine City Council this month, and will be used to pay for the recently completed repair of flood damage to the trail alongside Snakey Lane on the regular RAW West course. Race director Jeff "Barney" Barnhart thanks Ray Harris. (Photo credit: Helene Walker)
