RUNOHIO E-Newsletter
January 2010
Dear Reader,

picThe staff of RUNOHIO would like to wish you and your family a Happy and Safe New Year!  Hopefully, you have been able to take advantage of the nice weather we have had recently to get in some good winter training.

When you are making your New Year's Resolutions, we hope you will consider volunteering at a local road race.  If possible help to sponsor a local race, help a new runner to understand proper training, and helping your neighbor who might need some assistance. If we all do a few kind acts to help others nearby, I am sure 2010 will be a great year for all of us.

A Sense of Purpose
pic Why do you run? Do you ever really think about it? Has running become an automatic part of your life that requires little thought or analysis? Is it a part of your day, like brushing your teeth? Over the next few days reexamine your running and the purpose behind your running. Does your running really have a purpose? Did running once have a purpose, but now has that purpose been lost?

Stand Up Columbus
pic Stand up, Columbus!  --  http://www.standupcolumbus.com
The residents of the Arena District along with supporters of the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Columbus Clippers would like you to voice your concern about the placement of a casino in the Area District.
Penn National's current casino plan is gambling with the future of downtown Columbus. The Arena District is no place for a casino. Let's Stand Up and do something about it.
Time is of the essence, but if we Stand Up, Columbus -  the odds are in our favor.       Join today and sign our petition. http://www.standupcolumbus.com/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=registers&Itemid=50
