Can anyone drive me to the race? Let me know. Thanks. - Mark Snyder runpros@aol.com

I am helping Blue Planet Run raise awareness about the world water crisis and provide clean drinking water to people in developing counties by hosting a run every Wednesday in October -- 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29. I'll be departing from the "Duck Pond" in Glen Rock, part of the Saddle River County Park system at 6:15 p.m. The six-mile run will be on the paved path through the park at between 7:30 and 8:00 per mile pace. I donated $30 to the cause and I am encouraging those people that would like to join me for a run during October to do the same. The donation -- a one-time $30 gift -- to Blue Planet Run provides safe drinking water to three schools in Tanzania in East Africa. So, it's 30 miles and $30 for the cause. People interested in running with me (Paul Scire) and supporting Blue Planet Run can visit www.blueplanetrun.org starting on September 8. You can register for the runs and make a secure, online tax-deductible contribution of $30 at the same time. Thanks.

The Tuesday workout will be conducted with coach Joel at the Paramus Catholic Track starting Sept. 2. Directions. Check out what coach has in store by going to the workouts page. (You must be a logged in member to view workouts.)
