TEAM MARATHON GROUP PHOTO February 14, 2012 is the date of our next executive board and general body meetings, which will be held at the Shaker Heights Library. The executive board meeting is from 5:00PM-6: 15PM and general body meeting is from 6:30PM-8: 30PM. I look forward to seeing everyone this Saturday at 5:00AM on the Seven Springs bus or Tuesday at either the executive board or general body meetings. Sincerely, Chuck Myrick The problems in life come when we re sowing one thing and expecting to reap something entirely different. Team Marathon has been running together in the greater Cleveland area since Our philosophy is to promote and encourage running and walking, with support to health and fitness of all sports for healthy lifestyles. Our objectives include providing a forum for education and a fraternity for runners, walkers, members and the running public. Our goal is to foster physical education through running and goal seeking skills for children aged 12-17, with a special focus on urban adolescents. By Stephen R. Covey Black girls run? Of course we do. In 2009, Toni Carey and Ashley Hicks created Black Girls RUN! in an effort to tackle the growing obesity epidemic in the African-American community and provide encouragement and resources to both new and veteran runners. The mission of Black Girls RUN! is to encourage African-American women to make fitness and healthy living a priority. According to the Centers for Disease Control, 80% of African-American women are overweight. BGR! wants to create a movement to lower that percentage and subsequently, lower the number of women with chronic diseases associated with an unhealthy diet and sedentary lifestyle.

8 Slavery by Another Name Official Selection of the 2012 Sundance Film Festival premieres on PBS,Monday, February 13, 2012 at 9pm ET / 8pm CT (check local listings) Slavery by Another Name is a 90-minute documentary that challenges one of Americans most cherished assumptions: the belief that slavery in this country ended with the Emancipation Proclamation. The Sunday film tells how even as chattel slavery came to an end in the South in 1865, thousands of African Americans were pulled back into forced labor with shocking force and brutality. It was a system in which men, often guilty of no crime at all, were arrested, compelled to work without pay, repeatedly bought and sold, and coerced to do the bidding of masters. Tolerated by both the North and South, forced labor lasted well into the 20th century. For most Americans this is entirely new history. Slavery by Another Name gives voice to the largely forgotten victims and perpetrators of forced labor and features their descendants living today.
