Are you ready for your next great summer romance?

Summer romance…Most of us have experienced this sweet rite of passage. School lets out and you are traveling to camp or vacation,  spending summer break with your grandparents, or just left to your own devices for too long. Outside of your normal routine you meet someone with whom you click, bound by novelty and a sense of adventure. You  know that this time may be fleeting, yet it holds the promise of true love.

I don’t know where you are in your life now, but maybe you are like me: married with kids, mid-life, slave to routine – mostly other people’s routines. There is a place you can go, a foreign and enchanted place outside of your regular orbit: the track at UVA. 

The Charlottesville Track Club Women’s Four Miler Training Program (W4MTP) is like summer camp for grown up girls. Here you will meet other women braving a new adventure. You will bond with other participants and your new fairy godmothers, the “Pink Ladies”. You will create memories that will last a lifetime. It may seem a bit frightening, but thrilling too. You will consider the possibilities of true love again. 

If you are wondering why you should participate in the W4MTP, I say do it for love. 

You may do it for the  love of someone who is fighting or has survived breast cancer or someone you have lost to breast cancer. You may do it for the love a friend who wants to try this thing and needs your help and support. You may do it for those that love you: your husband, children, friends and family who want to see you happy and healthy, energetic and proud. 

The W4MTP may not be exactly like kissing some bronze surfer boy under the boardwalk, but you will find love. You may actually fall in love with walking or running, but maybe – just maybe - you might fall in love with yourself again. You will do more than you thought you could do. Your body will change; your mind will change; your heart will change. 

Do it for love. It’s never too late for your next great summer romance.
