GREETINGS FROM THE PRESIDENT
Hola!!
"A race is a work of art that people can look at and be affected in as many ways they're capable of understanding.”
~ Steve Prefontaine
Since my injury or lack of doctors figuring out my illness, it
has been hard to sit on the sidelines. I have been able to
attend a few of the races and see the joy on runners faces finishing their races.

President
Most recently at the Extra -Mile Challenge, I watched everyone come across
the finish line. I saw the different artwork by the runners and spectators. This
also motivated me to say the heck with the doctors and go out there and have
fun. So, I plan to start running again because I am hopeful that I will be able to
run my fall marathon.
Speaking of the Extra Mile Challenge, it has grown from its beginning in 2013.
Many of the Gold Cup members that approached me that evening were glad to
see it as a Gold Cup Race. I’d like to thank my Gold Cup chairperson, Barb
Hamner, and her committee on selecting this race. Kudos to Heather and
Todd Henderlong for putting together a great event.
Another great event was the Public Enemy 5K. I was not able to attend, but
overheard from runners the great reviews it received. New course a little
tougher, but it seemed everyone had fun. Kudos to Tim Fealy for feeding the
runners appetite for challenges.
A big THANK YOU to everyone who helped collect plastic caps in memory of
Rachel Maldonado-Rodriguez. The bench has been completed and will be
located at the Hobart Middle School. (Just drew a big blank, this happens
when I do not get to run and gather my thoughts.)
Remember train smart and not foolishly. The weather has been very unpredictable as we look forward to the challenging month of August. So stay hydrated,
dress properly for the weather conditions, and if you run at night, dress appropriately.
"The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start."

Munster Rotary 10K/5K
Overall: Above Average
High Points: Easy registration process, great instructions by race director before start of
race, nice refreshments--water, gatorade, bagels, bananas, oranges, and donuts.
Area for possible improvement:
Awards ceremony was long and disorganized. Suggest giving awards for 5K approximately 45 minutes after 10K start.
Firecracker 5K
Overall: Outstanding
High Points: Great communication via walkie-talkies from race director to volunteers. Medical van on-site and visible. Well-marked course with plenty of volunteers
cheering for runners. Raffle prizes pre-drawn during the race.
Area for possible improvement: Pace car needs to be ahead of lead runners. It was in
the middle of the pack.
Public Enemy 5K
Overall: Outstanding
High Points: Plenty of volunteers at key intersections. Great water station that runners
passed three times. Liked the course change. Unique awards--piece of jailhouse in
Crown Point. Police demo with dogs, helicopter landing, and gangster paraphernalia.
Area for possible improvement: Earlier start time. Suggest 8:00 a.m. instead of 9:00
a.m.
Brickyard 5 Miles/5K
Overall: Good
High Points:
Volunteers at key turns and intersections.
Love the bricks for
awards. Great selection of fruit for refreshments. Online and paper registration options. Good instructions to runners before the race.
Areas for possible improvement: Long lines at pre-registration table. Suggest splitting
lines by last names. Some pre-registered runners did not receive shirt or received
wrong size shirt. Suggest setting aside or putting pre-registered shirts in goodie
bags. Pre-registered runners should get shirts before any race day registered runners.
Nativity 5K
Overall: Above Average
High Points: Nice medals and timely award ceremony. Volunteers at key intersections
and turns. Water stations well manned.
Areas for possible improvement: Race is too long by approx. 0.1 mile. Suggest moving

High Points: Flat and fast course. Every quarter mile marked. No vehicle traffic. No
delays in start times. Plenty of volunteers along the course. Nice plaques, medals, and
shirts. AWESOME refreshments--tacos, nachos with salsa, hot dogs, chips, sub sandwiches, ice-cream, cupcakes, wine, beer, watermelon, and water. Shoe vendors on
site. DJ made several announcements for runners to get into corrals, introduced vendors, and played great music.
Area for possible improvement: If possible, have Clydesdale/Athena run against each
other instead of by age.

MEET A STRIDER: JOE REEVES
Tell us a little bit about your family?
Tina and I have been together for seven
years and married for five this past April.
Paisley is four, and we think it is awesome
that she looks at running as fun and begs
us to do it. As of now, she cannot wait to
do track. Pryce is two and was the first
baby born in Northwest Indiana on 12-1212. He is our little wrecking ball. Both the
kids love when we go to group runs so they
can see their friends, "our running friends."
It is awesome that they are seeing the fun
that can come from a healthy lifestyle.
How long have you been a Strider Member?
This is only the start of our second year as
Striders.
How did you hear about the Striders?
My first race was Ruff Tuff and in the Buff
in 2014, and I only knew one person at the
race -- Sara Post. She told me about the
Striders and the Gold Cup races. I think I
signed up within the next month.
When did you start running and why?
In April 2013 Tina and I quit smoking and
started working out to live a healthier life for
us and our kids. I had shoulder surgery
and could not ride a bike while in rehab.
My sister Rachel was visiting in July that
year and asked if I wanted to go running
with her. I thought no problem since Tina
and I had been doing cardio video
workouts. I was in store for a very rude
awakening when I could not even run for
more than five minutes without my calves
feeling like they were going to explode. I
then took it as a challenge to work up to a
fun 5K run by the end of September that
year. Tina and I both trained and finished
the Run/Walk at Brookfield Zoo. I ran
through the winter and got hooked on trail
races and have kept running. Tina quit, but
towards the middle of last summer started
again since she felt she was missing out on
a big part of my life. Now we run together
almost daily, and I push the double stroller
in our training. We are different paces and
still run together and both have been improving our times. Also, running together
has been one of the best things for our
relationship. While out on runs we can
have "therapy sessions" and air out things
very freely that are on our minds. It is great
to share an interest with the person you
love and to grow together with it.
What has been your favorite Gold Cup
Race so far?
Favorite Gold Cup race I've run is the
Ramp Run this past year. It's a cool
course since there is a different aspect with
the ramp, and it was the first road race in
which I placed in my age group. Best experience with a gold cup race was last year
volunteering for the Chicago Marathon with
Tina. What an awe inspiring sight to see
so many runners and to be able to be a
part of it with so many people that we have
met through the Striders.
Outside of running, what other hobbies are
you interested in?
With work, family, and training there isn't a
lot of free time, but I enjoy gardening, fishing, hunting, and love singing. Years ago I
used to be in two local bands.
Joe Reeves is also one of our Thursday night group run leaders. Come on out and run with the Reeves family.
Look out for these ladies
sporting lots of bling at
Nativity 5K.

USATF State Meet Results
The Junior Striders had a strong showing at the USATF State Meet held at Valparaiso University on June 19 and 20.
This is the first time in recent history this meet was held outside the Indianapolis area. We had a total of 24 athletes participate, and most of the kids qualified in at least one event to move on to the Regional Meet in Lisle, Illinois, on July 11
and 12. In order to move on to Regionals the participants had to finish in the top eight in an event. For many, this was
their first big meet and a State Qualifier for USATF brings some very good competition. To make things even more difficult, all the younger age groups had two years combined, which is difficult especially with the various ages of kids’
growth spurts. Great job to all the kids who participated, all the coaches are very proud of them. Thank you as well to all
the coaches who came out to help. The following is a list of events showing the Junior Striders who participated, their

USATF Regional Results
Many of the Junior Striders who participated and advanced from the USATF State Meet traveled to Lisle, Illinois, on July
11 and 12 to compete in the USATF Regional. Although this meet is only between competitors in Indiana and Illinois,

are continuing.

JUNIOR STRIDER NEWS (continued)
∞ Over the 4th of July week and
weekend the USATF and Hersey
partnered to bring a national competition to the Mid-West. The meet
was held from June 30—July 5 in
Lisle, Illinois. Due to this being a
national meet, the competition was
very tough. There were a handful of
Junior Striders who competed in the
meet including: Nicole Brandy,
Hunter Boyer, Jordyn Boyer, Reilly
Boyer, and Payton Boyer. The top
eight places in each event made it
on the podium and received medals.
Some of the kids had a personal
best time in an event with one notable result, Hunter Boyer finished fifth
in the 2000 Steeplechase.
∞ There are no longer local and
state Hershey meets being held as
in the past, but apparently they have
been holding these national meets
in the Mid-West over the past few
years. This may be something to
consider in the future for a national
meet that is relatively close.
∞ There were many Junior Striders
who came out and ran the Extra
Mile 1-Mile Challenge on Thursday
evening, July 9 in Valparaiso. It was
a great event to conclude many of
the kids’ track season. Many of the
kids and coaches participated in the
event and many also stayed after for
food, drinks, music, and of course
the rock wall. It was great to see all
of you there and see how far you
have come since the start of the
track season.
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE 2015 COUNTY LINE ORCHARD RACES!
