It's that time again!

The snow has melted, the trails are clear, and the mornings are warming up! It is officially marathon training season again in Cedar Falls, Iowa!  Welcome back all you official marathon runners and welcome to our soon-to-be marathon runners. Not sure that is you, yet? Well, you should get used to calling yourself a marathoner. You will be surprised how little time it will take to call yourself not only a runner, but also a marathon finisher! A year ago at this time I was not even a runner.... in 1 year I have become both! You will too if you want to and believe you can!!! We are excited for this new team and ministry and especially excited to have so many great people working towards similar goals!!!  Yeah, Iowans for Africa Team!!!

To get things kicked off we will be meeting THIS SUNDAY at 12:30 in the Orchard Hill Church Community Center. (that is April 25th for any of you reading this late :)  This meeting will be important to gather with your team for the first time, meet Coach Don if you haven't yet, have many questions answered, and.... drum roll please.... get your training schedule! Yeah! We really hope you can make it! It should not last more then 30-45 minutes. Plenty of time for your Sunday nap still :)

Just a reminder our first group run will be Saturday, May 1st. 7am I believe, but I'm not 100% so I will clarify that later.  If you haven't already I would strongly recommend getting fit for good running shoes at either The Runners's Flat or Scheels.  Tell them you are on this team and you will even get a little discount.

Hope you are having a great day and look forward to seeing you on the 25th!
