**With the New Year, and then the approaching warmer weather, we will be getting new runners coming out to our runs. Please take the time to stay with and encourage them. We were all 'in those shoes' at one point.
This is also the time to start filling in your calender. Many races these days have lottery entries or sell out well in advance. You don't want to miss out on any of your must do runs. Planning the race schedule will help to motivate you and set goals through these winter months. Keeping a training log also helps to keep focused.

You can e-mail me this information to dktate1@juno.com or mail it to me at dennis Tate, 158 Marlborough Rd, Upper Darby, PA 19082. A check payable to Delco RRC for $38.00 can be mailed to the above address, hand ed to me at a fun run, or handed to me at the bike shop in Media. The race director expects a large turnout so don't delay getting registered. I'll keep you updated.
