Meters & Miles to Become a Running Spot
This past weekend Meters & Miles closed their shops in Florence and Newport. Bob Roncker's Running Spot bought the assets of Meters and Miles and will be opening their 4th shop at the former Meters & Miles store in Newport at 317 Monmouth Street on Friday September 4. Brad Dunlevy and a few of his staff from Meters & Miles are with the Running Spot, so there will be some familiar faces. They hope that you will stop down at the Newport location and see the new shop.

Ohio and Kentucky Cross Country Invitational Results On the Web
After spending about an hour on the local newspaper website trying to get results from this past weekend's local cross country invitationals, I came across http://www.milesplit.us. They bill themselves as the nation's premier network for high school track & field and cross country. I do not know about that, but they did have results for both Ohio and Kentucky Cross Country Inviationals this past weekend. They had every invitional that I had an interest in and some local to the Greater Cincinnati area, that I did not know about. The site has a Kentucky portal and an Ohio portal so you can find out how your local high schools did or how the local runners who ran in the club's summer cross country series fared.
