Natalie Dale went from a steaming 80 degrees to a freezing 8 degrees after running the AIA Marathon in Ft. Lauderdale February 17 and returning to the February 23 training run. Natalie ran a 4:22:24 and is now fully heat acclimatized. Jeff Datillo was treated to perfect temps of 53 degrees in South Carolina at the February 16 BI-LO Marathon as well as a Boston qualifying finish. Jeff ran a new PR of 3:10:17 thanks to ideal conditions and tips from personal training guru Ken Dettloff. When asked if he would visit Beantown this year, Jeff’s response was “Now, I'm tempted to run Boston this April since I'm already trained, but this is not optimal on the home front with the baby coming March 28th.” “hmmmm.” Julie Wojtaszek enjoyed 85 degree weather at an all inclusive resort in Mexico, but did not run a marathon.
