La Luz Trail Run Announcement The La Luz Trail Run is ON! 2009 Lottery Results I received authorization late in the afternoon on 5/15/09 from Forest Service to send out application forms for La Luz Trail Run. I have a family function on 5/16/09 and will try and get the forms in the mail by 5/18/09. I will be using a random number generator to sort all of the envelopes that were received - the first 400 will be sent entry forms and the rest will be the waiting list. I received a total of 564 envelopes for the 400 slots. Good Luck and be looking for your envelope in the mail. Rodger Sack Race Director LA LUZ 2009 TRAINING PROGRAM The La Luz training is under way, and we are heading into the third run this Thursday. This week we are heading up for a 75 minute run on Pino Trail, a nice, shady alternative to La Luz. Plan to meet in the Elena Gallegos Open Space parking area, just to the right and up around the corner from the entry gate. We have been getting onto the trails promptly at the 6:00 pm start time.
Also scheduled this week is a "bonus" training session on Saturday, June 6. The planned route is up the King of the Hill trails from the Sandia Ski Basin. I would like to have some idea of how many people are planning to go, so a carpool time and location can be set. I would like to avoid the confusion we had at the first Saturday run, where one of our bravest runners actually ended up going alone and ran into a bear near the crest! You can let me know Thursday, or e-mail or call, so arrangements can be announced. ktollstabler@yahoo.com; 239-5869.
The initial program is listed below. Weekend runs are in italics.
As an additional resource, you may also find the club’s Monday evening trail runs to be helpful , and fun, in your training. They are held every Monday, meeting at the east end of Indian School Rd. in the foothills, for a 1 – 1.5 hr. run. Ed Heller is the coordinator. 252-2604 with any questions. For even more experience, there are several really great trail races coming up in our area. There is the World’s Toughest 10K on May 17; Run the Caldera (trail marathon or half-marathon) on June 13; and the Sandia Peak Challenge on July 11. I encourage you to give any or all a try! I am happy to answer any questions you may have about the La Luz training program. Feel free to call me, Kathleen Stabler, at 239-5869, or by e-mail, ktollstabler@yahoo.com.
