Indoor Track Recap
About 15 runners showed up for an Indoor Track Meet with the UC Running Club and the Runners' Club of Greater Cincinnati. After much discussion, it was decided to keep the event a low key affair. Also, a Distance Medley Relay was added with the other events like the 400, 800, 1 mile, 2 Mile and 4 x 800 relay. Conditions outside cooperated by being icy, and slick so people had to run inside where it was nice and warm. I would have loved to do a couple of the events but I was injured and there was no sundial indoors to accurately time me. The two most interesting events were the Distance Medley Relay(1200, 400, 800, Mile) and the 4 x 800 relay as UC's Indoor Track is 175 meters. At least the track was marked enough to figure out how to do it. The fun was trying to count over 18 laps for four different relay teams. A big thank you goes to Jascia Redwine and the UC Running Club for being able to make this happen in January. The club looks forward to doing this again next year.
