With lots of Michigan talent to choose from Michigan Runner Magazine looks at performances in national and international events. Peacock made statements at Footlocker Nationals (5th), USA Cross Country Junior Championships (7th in a college-dominated field), Western Hemisphere's NACAC Cross Country Championships (bronze). Michigan Runner magazine is available in running specialty stores throughout Michigan.

__/ MICHIGAN RUNNER TV: MILFORD LABOR DAY 30K, 10K, BIKE & SKATE - The Milford Labor Day 30K and 10K added bike and inline skating to their mix as they continued to build the participation in their events. They are supporting the new Milford Trail project as well as a number of other charities. This is fast becoming a "must be there" event for the Labor Day Weekend. It is also a great training run for fall marathons. Watch the 30K for the view of a scenic and challenging course. http://michiganrunner.tv/2006milford/

__/ MICHIGAN RUNNER TV: CRIM FESTIVAL OF RACES - We continue Crim shows with the 10 Mile race-- featuring interviews with Molly Brinker, Tracy Rizer, Julie Winter, Marybeth Reader, John Nelles, Greg Roth, Kathy Roche-Wallace, Jo Darlington, Denisa Costescu and more. Later this week: Legends of the Crim including Steve Kenyon, 8K, 5K, Teddy Bear Trot and more. http://michiganrunner.tv/2006crim/

__/ DANCES WITH DIRT, PINCKNEY, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9 - The relays filled up months ago, but you can still sign up to run the short ultra (50K) or the long ultra (50 mile). Be prepared for an adventure which includes dirt, logs, river crossings, pine needles. For a flavor of this race see Michigan Runner magazine's article with Carter Sherline's photos: http://www.michiganrunner.net/news/dwd0904.html. Want to be part of the action? Volunteer. http://danceswithdirt.com

__/ MACKINAC ISLAND EIGHT MILE ROAD RACE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9 - Every runner should experience this grand Michigan road-racing tradition: eight miles around the Island with views of the Straits of Mackinac and the Mackinac Bridge. Don't expect a small local race; do expect a couple thousand runners taking over the Island. St. Ignace Kiwanis host and donate proceeds to St. Ignace high school track and cross country teams. Last year the high school got a new track. Check out Robin Sarris Hallop's articles from Michigan Runner (2002 & 2005):

__/ MRN ON THE ROAD - MILFORD - Congrads to Doug Klingensmith, Tiffany Loeding and the Huron Valley Running Club for putting on the Milford Labor Day Events:

* The 30K event is a much-needed distance on the racing agenda. The 10K, bike and in-line skate events bring lots of local residents into the event.

* Doug Kurtis was official starter and Master of Ceremonies at the award ceremony.

* The new Kenyan group training in Ann Arbor made a serious statement by winning both men's open events. 30K winner Emmanuel Kibet is planning to run Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon later on this month.

* Samantha Brish is on a roll. After winning her age group (14) in the Crim 10 mile last week, she won her age group in the 10K. Samantha can be proud of her mom, too. Krys Brish was 3rd overall and 1st master in the 30K. The prize money made for some tough competition:

__/ MRN ON THE ROAD - DETROIT OR "MAMMA, IT'S OINKING, IT'S OINKING" - It's a real treat to spend Labor Day Weekend in Detroit where you can take in the Michigan State Fair at one end of Woodward and the Detroit Jazz Festival at the other end of Woodward (Hart Plaza). Grandaughter Lily got to pet newborn piglets, lambs and chicks at the fair. Ann Gasta, race director for Bay City's St. Patrick Day Races, was taking in the Jazz Fest and a cruise on the Detroit Princess Riverboat. Ann is planning to run the Detroit Free Press / Flagstar Bank Marathon and she had a good chance to check out the route: Ambassador Bridge, Windsor waterfront, the tunnel (sort of), Belle Isle.
