The Woodlands Update



Last year we continued our Beat Program through the summer months training for the Ten for Texas race held in The Woodlands in mid October. We continued on with a mini program for the Houston Half Marathon. We had planned on doing the same this year with the addition of a Trail program ( Rick's influence ). We actually came up with a completely different plan that may surprise some.

The Woodlands is home to another training program called WoodlandsFit. They will have almost 400 runners training for the Houston Marathon and Half Marathon starting in mid July. They also have a Trail program already in place. Luke's and WoodlandsFit have partnered up for 2007 / 2008. Instead of the Ten for Texas & Mini Half we ( the Luke's Beat Program coaches ) will coach the WoodlandsFit Half Marathon program. We will bring a lot to the program. It looks to be a fun summer. ( I'm sure I'll get a comment from Holden )

New Triathon Program - Super Coach Kim Hager will have a Triathlon Program through Luke's Locker in The Woodlands beginning in June. For more details contact Luke's Locker Market Street.

Team In Training will be as strong as ever. Coaches Don Steele & Chris White are heading up The Woodlands Fall Team for Nike San Francisco Marathon & Half Marathon and Marine Corps Marathon. Dana-Sue Crews and Carol Steele will head up the Winter Team training for Houston, Arizona & Disney.

I would say that we have a very good team of coaches who work together very well. We will also have several from the FIT group. The nice thing is that the full marathon coaches won't have to split thier time coaching for two different distances. The whole program will be stronger.
