Sub-15:00 blog reminder

Here’s a friendly reminder to check back frequently to Steve Hicks’ excellent video blog, linked here. This week's episode has an excellent "Ode to Hopkins" theme to it. Some classic old photos in there!

Hicks, a proud Marist Running alum, and his Syracuse running buddies are chronicling weekly workouts in their attempt to break 15:00 for 5k as post-collegians.

I don’t want to jinx things, but I think that Hicks is well on his way to achieving this goal. He has established a nice base, and his first few workouts/races have gone pretty well – in the humble opinion of this old coach.

The videos are funny and entertaining, and promise to get more interesting as the long and dark winter establishes its inevitable foothold in Central New York.

Check it out, and keep coming back each week (don’t worry, I’m sure I’ll remind you …)
