Hi, Everyone,

I’ll keep this short as I’m rushing out to Panorama to help set up for Jackfest.

Please do your best to come see me soon, if you’re running Richmond or Philly. These one-on-one race plan chats have proved to be very helpful over the years, so I strongly encourage you to stop by. I personally love these meetings.

The same goes, if you’re having any new pain issues. Please don’t wait to contact me. 24 hours is a good rule of thumb.

And one last plug for Jackfest:
If you can’t make it out to Panorama this afternoon, then please donate online or text me. Lots of raffle prizes will be awarded.The family of young Jack Callahan are so grateful for all the many folks who have already contributed and so am I! Many thanks again, everyone and now I promise to stop bugging you about this! Read this great ESPN story on Jack Meeting Gritty!

Congrats to Christian, who nailed a sweet Mountain Masochists 50 yesterday and all the best to our NYC folks today.

Happy Birthday to Josh T., who turns 30 this Friday!

See you Wednesday, if not sooner.

Cheers!

Coach Mark
