START TRAINING FOR THE 2015 MOUNT WILSON TRAIL RACE

 The Mt. Wilson Trail Race Committee is again 
offering a comprehensive 17-week program 
to get runners ready for the challenging Mt. 
Wilson Trail Race, scheduled for Saturday, May 
23, in Sierra Madre. This program is free and 
the public is invited to participate.

 Run With Us/Pasadena, with assistance from 
Invictus Running Academy and the Foothill 
Flyers, will lead advanced and beginners 
groups on a series of weekly runs up the My. 
Wilson Trail and along City of Sierra Madre 
streets. The instructors will also offer an easy 
to follow training program for runners to train 
on their own throughout the week. Two local 
popular races, the Santa Anita Derby Day 5k 
(April 4) and Fountain to Falls (May 9) will be 
part of the training program.

 Starting on January 31, the group will meet in 
Kersting Court (at the intersection of Baldwin 
Ave and Sierra Madre Blvd) at 7:00 am each Saturday. After stretching and instruction, the runners will be on 
their way and should return by 9:00 am at the latest. On Saturday, May 16, a week before the Mt. Wilson Trail 
Race, there will be an expert panel prior to the training session, featuring past MWTR champions providing race 
strategy and advice.

 All runners should bring their own water and running watch, as the workouts will involve timed events.
