July 30- August 1, Portland Running Company is hosting its Annual Summer Sale. Save 15% on all purchases with saving up to 50% off! If you are ready to replace your current shoes or stock up, now is the time. We have about ten weeks to the big event. At 15-20 miles per week, you could log up to 200 miles! Work backwards from the marathon to find the ideal time to incorporate new shoes. We recommend that you get to the marathon with more than 50 and fewer than 100 miles. Buy your shoes during the sale and stow them away. Two more bench marks to go. The weekend before the 21 miler is a great time to debut your race day shoe. If you can't make the sale Friday, Saturday, or Sunday and you are planning on spending more than $200 (2 pair of shoes, body glide, socks, and a piece of apparel for example...), bring in your shoe tag today or tomorrow and we'll give your the sale price!

PRC released its first edition of Foot Notes. Go to our website at www.portlandrunningcompany.com to sign up for our e-newsletter.

Good luck with your go-forward goals!
