1.29.2025 - Let's Run Long

Written by Randy Step

Today I ran, endured, what seemed like a 3 mile marathon. Usually, a short day followed by a long day is the plan. Plan B, tomorrow a day off is in order. No, I'm usually not that smart … OK, some upbeat run fun.

We have lots of fun on the horizon! Your inner hippie will be excited to see the new full-length documentary on Run Woodstock, dig?! Save the date, Friday night March 7, South Lyon Theater. More info to come!

We will be sporting Honolulu Blue for the Super 5K Road Race on February 9 in Novi, MI, a celebration of the most winning season ever. Dan Campbell lookalike contest winner Jeff Randall will be on hand as the official race starter! Sign up today and earn your spot on the couch for the big game!

Running a marathon is back in vogue, the 26.2 mile distance is the fastest growing race category. What has always been my favorite event distance, is back on top. Join the dedicated, pain loving, pursuit, it will never be easy but will always be worth it! There's still time to cram for the exam with 10 weeks until the Martian Invasion of Races Marathon on 4/12/25! You won't want to miss this great, low key, early event with a few hundred, rather than 10's of thousands of runners, where you won't feel like a number! There's also something for everyone with distances of 5K, 10K and 13.1 miles! Nanu, Nanu!

January is almost over, so it's time to ratchet up and rock some miles!

Randy Step,

An admitted obsessed runner, ready to up the ante and go all in!
