Fitness and those who practice it come in many shapes and sizes. A workout can be weights at the gym, a treadmill (ho-hum), dancing (with or without the stars), a brisk walk, or running - 5K, 10K, a marathon or further. Those who exercise can be fit as fiddles or struggling to get down another jean size or two. The important thing is that we are all in it together.

Are You Running on Sunday?
If you are one of the 31 thousand (yes, that's the count I just saw!)
who will be running Rock'n'Roll San Antonio, let me know. Send your
emails to iexerciseradio@tpr.org. Got any comments or cool observations? Send those along too.
San Antonio teams swept 4 of the top 5 places at this year's Beach to Bay Marathon Relay in Corpus. Two of those 4 SA teams were running for Fleet Feet San Antonio. Congratulations to those competitors: Fleet Feet Sports Mambas, Fleet Feet Juniors, Los Borrachos and GMTC.
Texas Independence Relay Results
The results are in for the 2010 running of the Texas Independence Relay, one of the coolest races to be found in Texas or elsewhere, for that matter. Congratulations to all the participants, to the numerous volunteers, and to race organizers Joy and Jay Hilscher.
Several San Antonio based teams ran the event. Kudos to Dr. Mitchell Finnie, a runner with Los Paisanos, the top finishing SA team. They covered the 203+ miles in 24 hours 53 minutes 30 seconds. The team from the Mid-Texas Symphony, which I led, finished in 29 hours 42 minutes 48 seconds.
Need a Lift?
I just ran across this inspiring blog and highly recommend it. It lifts my spirit to see so many people applying their passion and commitment to running to such great causes.
