This is a message for Luis. For two weeks straight, I have received input from your running partners that you ran them into the ground. That would be Carol and Billy respectively.

The Injured Bench
Liz returned to action today and knocked off a 5K yesterday. Her broken wrist is healing well.
Marty Katz continues his miraculous recovery from his biking accident. Had lunch with him last Thursday and still marvel at the miracle of his comeback.
Michael has gone onto the bench with a meniscus issue which he plans to address and hopes to be back on the road sometime in January. Good luck with the procedure, Michael.
Late returns
Russ reported in last week on his racing adventures. He completed the NYC Marathon a few weeks back with his friend Danny. Congratulations to both of you!
And as if that weren't enough, Russ and Danny also completed the OUC Half in 2:07 and 1:59 respectively. Good job.
Finally, Danny, who has run with us a few times officially joins our distribution list today. Welcome, Danny!

Get this: Bob just got a Euro 100 check in the mail for his second place performance in the
Merry Christmas!
Next Sunday is Christmas Day and I take this opportunity to wish you and your families a blessed and happy day.
If you plan to run next Sunday, I suggest you check in during the week and let the group know if you are coming out.

That was Jake and I. Because the weather was so wonderful I felt really good this morning and did 19 miles.
