Today, we are a group of runners, most of whom seldom run or race on a track. An exception is J.C. Shenk, who still competes in National and State Track meets running the quarter mile in the 70 -74 age group. J.C. Shenk and his wife Jewel were among a list of runners who entered the Florida State Masters Track and Field Championships on March 22, 1975, calling themselves the “Manasota Track Club”. The list included Bill O’Brien, J.C. and Jewel Shenk, Guy and Melanie Pascal, John and Denny (female) Beith, and Mike MacLeod. Among the trophies was one to be given to the winning masters team. Bill O’Brien and Shenk recognized the opportunity to win it all, that was the day the MTC was born. Kent Wiley wrote in his “A Little MTC Lore I”, “Back in those days, few women entered such an event. Because of that, Jewel, Melanie and Denny entered multiple events and piled up the points. After the first day of the two-day event, MTC was in second place, just behind the St. Pete T & F Club. O’Brien, Shenk and company decided to return to Bradenton and Sarasota that night and recruit. They added Nancy Carson and Doris Wilson, returned the next day and won the championship, and the next seven Florida State Masters Track and Field Championships in a row. In just a couple months, the MTC will celebrate 40 years of existence, and it is exciting to note that Bill O’Brien, J.C. and Jewel Shenk, and Nancy Carson are still active members. How many organizations of this type have such a legacy? We must give a sincere note of thanks to Kent Wiley, self appointed Club Historian, for sharing the recorded history of the MTC. Kent provided the following list of names from the earliest known printed roster of the MTC, dated January 14, 1980: ( * indicates pioneer members at founding of MTC March 22, 1975) Nancy Carson*, Tom, Sandy and Matt Depenbrock, Holt Fisher, Jay and Marlyn Jaffe, Alec Jerrems, Dan and Tootie Kennedy, Marty McNamara, Kent and Ann Morgan, Mary Berdell Murphy, Bill O’Brien*, Bob Parnes, Randy Peachey, Amy Petz, Richard and Monique Quevillon, Leah Roberts McElroy, Walt Rothenbach, J.C. and Jewel Shenk*, Walter White, Kent Wiley, Paul Wilson, Ray and Mary Jane Zuknick. Kent Wiley says there could be others who should be on this list. The first formal meeting of the MTC was May 6, 1975, when Bill O’Brien was elected President, John Beith Vice-President, J.C. Shenk Treasurer and Jewel Shenk Secretary. After the meeting was duly adjourned, the champagne that accompanied the large trophy, was opened! On December 4, 1979, Articles of Incorporation of the Manasota Track Club were introduced by member attorney Robert Widman and signed by Bill O’Brien, President; Dr. Charles Hill, Vice-President; Dr. Jay Jaffe, Secretary; and J.C. Shenk, Treasurer. The articles were amended on October 16, 1980 to require in the event of dissolution of the MTC, any funds left in the treasury shall be donated to the Sarasota YMCA. In ensuing months, we will take advantage of Kent Wiley’s record of the rich history of the MTC to share more of what has made the MTC the strong organization that we know today. www.manasotatrackclub.org 1 PLEASE VISIT OUR WE B SITE AT: manasotatrackclub.org Webmasters: Don Marshall – sarasotadon@msn.com • Patti Connors – patticonnors@outlook.com New Balance Sarasota 1872 Stickney Point Rd.

I get a special joy from the fact that I'm doing something for myself that I know is helping me become a stronger, more fit, 75+ year old. In 2011, I embarked on an extended road trip in my RV that took me to the west coast and points in between and I couldn't keep up my workout program. I didn't pick it up again until last year. I knew that I had lost some muscle mass and was curious to see how soon I could get it back... I was amazed! With every session I'm getting stronger. My stronger body makes my life easier and more enjoyable. My trainer is an excellent coach and, I think accepts the fact that I like to talk while I'm working out, but that's just how I do it. It’s not mandatory to be a motor mouth. I'll ask her things like, “Did you add weight? How much? How much time did I do last time? How much time have I done so far? Is that all? You’re kidding... I don't think I can do anymore!” She'll say, “Yes you can, try one more.” I try, I do one more and it is not easy, but quite often I find enough strength to do another one after that. That's what it’s all about. That's the genius of this program. I exhaust my muscle groups with a high weight for my ability and a low number of slow repetitions... once a week. I don't have to do three sets of ten, two to three times a week at the gym. This is a medically based, scientifically proven training program performed on unique specialized equipment with extremely knowledgeable coaches in a semi-private non-gym environment. I bike, swim, stand up paddle-board, dance, yoga, meditate, take naps and more. I live with a great sense of gratitude of the blessing God has given me. I don't take anything for granted, including my muscles. 20 Minutes Once a Week! I first came to 20 Minutes to Fitness in 2008 and it was nothing I had ever experienced in my life. I had been around gyms for many years and I was quite aware of all sorts of workout philosophies, but never this one. In and out in about twenty minutes? This I had to see. I saw it and I'm still here. Since I added “20 Minutes to Fitness” to my life, I'm doing just fine, thank you!!!!!

This has always been part of our charter to promote running in our community. Having two back-to-back incredibly successful BBR events has allowed the MTC board to be very generous whenever a request for funding (RFF) comes before them from one our club members. Not all RFF’s get approved. However if the request comes from a reliable and knowledgeable club member it helps the board tremendously in their decision-making. As you can see there are 13 local running programs that we provide some funding to. Additionally, $12,200 in college scholarships was granted this past May. Since its inception 8 years ago, our MTC College Scholarship program has been able to provide an impressive total of $50,350 in scholarships to local high school runners. The positive impact of our funding can be visibly seen at any local running event where groups of school age runners are all dressed alike in tee-shirts sporting the MTC logo. If possible, we request that the programs we financially support brand their apparel with a small MTC logo. At some point, we might form a “Grant Committee” to screen financial requests and make recommendations to the Board. For now, however, the board discusses each request in an open format at their regularly scheduled meetings and then votes on any specific amounts to be gifted. According to board member Tom Flanagan, some of his best moments serving on the MTC board have been when they voted to approve funding to help get a new running program started in our community. “Brentwood and Gocio elementary school programs come to mind. It is one of the reasons I continue to be an MTC volunteer and passionate supporter,” says Flanagan. 2014 Community Donations Requesting club member $500Fruitville Elementary School Runners Patti Brustad $3,000 Villa La Paz (MTC Ultra)Dave Siegwald $1,000Girls Inc - Girls on the Run Janie Denman $500 Menke Family Educational TrustKim Collister $12,200College Scholarship ProgramSteve Crane $700SHS Cross Country - Summer Camp John Stevenson $200Friends of the Parks (Siesta Paver Brick)Tom Flanagan $500 McIntosh Middle School Runners Patti Brustad $400 Phillippi Shores 7K Event - RegistrationsTom Flanagan $1,500 Gocio School Running ProgramNancy Flanagan $1,000 Brentwood Elementary School Runners John Weida $400 RVHS Cross Country - used for van rental Paul Opitz $1,000 Gulf Gate Elementary School Runners Patti Brustad $750 Lakeview Elementary Running Program Patti Brustad $750 Booker HS Cross Country (team apparel)Steve Crane $500 Tillman Elementary SchoolStephaine Vlahakis $1,000 Special Olympics Boosters of VeniceDave Burke $25,900 TOTAL AMOUNT RUN ON!

MANASOTA TRACK CLUB www.manasotatrackclub.org 13 Picnic Island Adventure Run This time it was no picnic! Submitted by Rae Ann Darling Reed O ne of my all-time favorite races is the Picnic Island Adventure Run in Tampa, Florida. It is actually a series of three races that take place once a month on Friday nights in May, June, and July. Hot and humid do not begin to describe the weather at 6:45 p.m. on the small island in Tampa Bay under a cloudless summer sky. So once you’ve accepted the weather factor, you’re ready for the real challenge. This adventure run is unique and definitely not one of those mud runs or extreme obstacle races where you sign away your life in a waiver. I don’t do dangerous races like that. Picnic Island is challenging, don’t get me wrong, but it is definitely more welcoming to all ages and abilities who are seeking adventure. The obstacles are minor; you crawl under a cargo net on your knees over sand, run through six big, inflated tubes, and then hurdle, jump, walk, or crawl over one hurdle. The rest of the run is on the beach, grassy areas with hills, a couple of very small sections over pavement, and quite a bit through mangroves. Oh the mangroves! You never know what to expect until you get there. This July 18th, high tide was coming in so the water through the mangroves was pretty deep, very warm, and muddy. Yes, a little bit of “ick” factor, especially if you go splashing through like I did and it hits you in the face. I always sign up for the three race series but this year I was unable to race the May and June races due to my post Boston Marathon rest period and rehabbing an injury. I knew I was not in top shape, but was very excited to race Picnic Island as well as I could. From the gun, I was out of breath and knew I would be. I was just trying to hold on to my spot in the top five overall women as we approached the last section of “non-trails” before the toughest part of the course. I say “non-trails” because they are not trails; they are overgrown areas of vegetation that someone walked through when setting up the course and stomped down a single track area for us to squeeze through. I was almost through this section, which is my least favorite of the course, and I tripped. I had an out of body experience. I saw myself floating down towards the ground, almost as if in slow motion. As soon as my knees hit the rocks at the bottom of the slight downhill I popped up, probably cursed (can’t remember now), and quickly ran off. I attacked the five or six steep hills that zigzag up and down from the beach because I was so shocked that I fell and a bit embarrassed. But I wasn’t feeling any pain yet so I finished strong and ended up placing third overall and won Masters. Once I hosed off my legs to assess the damage, then the pain kicked in. So this one was no picnic but even now, two weeks after the event, my knees are still scraped, bruised, and recovering but I cannot wait until next summer when I can run all three Picnic Island Adventure Runs!

By Nancy Flanagan “TRE” – No, it is not a large woody trunk with leaves…..it is the largest running conference and trade show in the country and it is held in Austin, Texas the first week of December every year. This event was started by a guy named Mark Sullivan and it has quickly become THE event for run specialty stores to send their key personnel to every year since its inception. The event is held in the Austin Conference Center and it includes a number of speaker sessions and breakout sessions the first few days followed by a massive expo with run specialty vendors showing their latest and greatest offerings from shoes to apparel to accessories and services. It is an overwhelming display of all things run-related and it seems to get bigger every year. It’s made of soft, durable, wickable Lycra fabric that wraps around your hand allowing you to use both sides of your Handana hand to wipe sweat from your eyes, nose, neck or forehead. Your hand and fingers are completely free to keep your stride smooth, steer your bike or to open snacks and water bottles. Handana is perfect for athletes of any level and works for a variety of sports. Use Handana while running, riding your bike, doing yoga or playing tennis. There are lots of fun activities interspersed in the show, including a Sunrise Trail Run, the Indie 5K Run, and the 50 Best running Stores in America Awards Banquet. New this year at the Expo was a Treadmill Challenge sponsored by ASICS. In their very large expo area, called ASICS Treadmill Stadium, they had a treadmill set up along with a large digital display clock. The goal was to get folks to take the “Ryan Hall Challenge”. You had to climb into a specially designed harness hanging over the treadmill and then try and maintain the marathon pace of Ryan Hall for as long as possible. The prize? A ticket to Paris, France! The winning time? An amazing time of 18:08 minutes at a 4:45 pace!!!! It was fun to watch… A couple of fun new items that I found that are now available at Fleet Feet Sarasota are: The Handana® - A high performance sweatband to wipe sweat Endure Inspirational Running Jewelry Sunny Arada is a former NCAA Track and Field and Cross Country athlete who founded Endure Jewelry in 2009 as part of her MBA program at Fresno State University.

Anyone who would like to comment about a race can email me directly at deshaitr@hotmail.com. and they cut the bananas in half!! They had a keg of beer there and after a while with no one manning the keg, I stepped up and tapped that keg. I stayed around and with the help of Mitch Greening serving all the thirsty runners…finally a job I was meant to do! ☺ Sal Half Marathon and 4 Mile Reindeer Dash: This race takes place at I give the Sal Half Marathon and Reindeer the Sarasota Square Mall with the start/ Run 4 miler a 9.2 out of 10 I really liked the finish right on Sarasota Square Mall Drive. I cotton shirt with reindeer on it the 4 milers arrived about 45 minutes prior to the race got better than the tech shirt the half maraand as soon as I got out of the truck I heard thoners. some guy on a mic saying packet pickup was closing in 15 minutes!! I have been Deck to Deck 8.7 Miler: This FREE to a lot of races and never heard of packet race starts at Daiquiri Deck on St. Armand’s pickup closing…in fact, sometimes I’ve Circle and ends at the Daiquiri Deck in Siesta come in on 2 wheels had to run to packet Key Village. The only pre-race thing that pickup then head right to the starting line you had to do was sign in and get your wrist just in a nick of time!! I don’t need someone band for the post race party and that is what on a microphone rushing me before I have this race is all about!! Whether you run this The Daiquiri Deck post race feast! to go race!! Then he was going on and on race for time or for a leisurely workout every about getting to the starting area!! Hey gets the same prize at the end!! this ain’t Disney with thousands of runners!! Then after all that Now this race has several bridges in it. The first one yak-yak about getting to the starting line, they had to delay is the Ringling Bridge then each successive bridge is a little the start 10 minutes because of the Jiffy John lines!! smaller and a little shorter. The temperatures were ideal in I wimped out and did the 4 mile race so I have to rely on the low 60’s and they had several water stops out on the the comments I got from others about the half marathon. The course. Tom Flanagan was driving the MTC van around the course changed this year for the half and the good news is… course making sure everything was running smoothly. They it was measured I’m going to say right on at 13.09 miles!! Way had the Slip N Slide at the end of the race and once again J.J. better than previous years where it was almost .15 miles to drained the pool!! long!! Some people liked the new course some did not. There The post race party is absolutely awesome!! They was more sidewalk running this year and like I said some peohave scrambled eggs, hash browns, bacon, sausage, apples, ple liked it some didn’t. oranges, granola with yogurt, pastries, blueberry muffins, miThe 4 milers was tough for the first half, because the sun mosa, whole banana’s ☺ and the bar was open!! Any daiquiri was coming up right in our faces! I guess you could say I was you wanted and domestic drafts…did I mention it was FREE? running at a blinding pace ☺ The course took us through the They once again had a trolley to take you back to St. Armand’s Deer Creek subdivision where my good friend Peter Laughlin Circle, where hopefully your designated driver was waiting!! was waiting for me with a beer and he was also busily taking I once again give the Daiquiri Deck to Deck a 20 out of 10!! photos of all the runners. The race took a turn for long as I This race easily wins my “Best Deal” award. My best advice is found out where that .15 miles went in the half marathon… to sign up early as they cap it at 300 people and you do not that’s right the 4 miler was exactly .15 miles to long. So if you want to miss this one next year…trust me ☺ were upset with your time, you have my permission to take 3 minutes off what the official results time was!! The quick 1,2,3 on upcoming races: Everyone who finished the 4 miler received a nice reindeer Andrew Monroe Memorial 5k: Heard good things about this medal. The awards for the overall winners and the age group race last year, missed it because I was at Disney winners were ribbons with the reindeer race graphic on them. Ringling Bridge 4 Miler: Great hill course, nice awards, great Everyone in the Half Marathon received a Sheriffs Star shaped post race part medal similar to past years. The awards were once again Tervis Tumblers with the race graphic on them and they went Achieva Run For Good 5k: New race this year, so we will have 6 deep in each age group to see The post race party was pretty good. It wasn’t as good Sun Coast Half Marathon: Nice course, good food, nice as years gone by, where it was catered by Carrabba’s, but awards, great post-race party with beer!! they did a pretty good job. They had hotdogs, sliced pickles, See you at the races ☺ huge grapes, pastries, doughnuts, assorted breads, muffins, assorted doughnuts balls, crackers, assorted cheese, bagels MANASOTA TRACK CLUB www.manasotatrackclub.org 17 Events January 17th Ringling Bridge Run Jeff Ellis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 321-4113 January 24th Achieva Run For Good who’s Patti Brustad . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 650-6828 RUNNING your PLAN for retirement?
