February 20, 2011 Run

With a strong hint of spring in the air, we had a healthy turnout of 19 people by my count, including half a dozen people who also did the Run Around the Pines 5K

yesterday.  Lynne was back in town this weekend, and she and son Shawn joined us.

 

 Since Billy has not yet shown up after his trip to Tokyo, he may still be bumping around Asia if the rumors are correct.

 

Run Around the Pines 5K

Looks like ten of us turned out for the race yesterday.  We had representation in seven age categories: (Age groups 25, 35, 45, 50, 55, 65 and 75 years).  We had a very user friendly temperature and the fastest 5K course in the area.

 

Looking Ahead

On March 13 we will host a visitor from Winnipeg, Manitoba. He is looking to do 13 miles at about a 10 minute pace.  Anyone planning to run long on the 15th?

 

Updating our Mailing List

I've had affirmative responses from Beth, Chip and Keith.  Beth has been training for the Disney Princess Half this month.

 

That leaves Dr. Art, Peter, Summer, Adrian G. Adrian R, Mike O and Victor unaccounted for at this juncture.  If we do not hear from you folks this week, we will be dropping you from our distribution list.  Please check in and update us on your lives.

 

Leslee:  We know you were due to have a baby around the end of last year.  In your case, I plan to leave you on the distribution list if you wish.  Please check in and let us know the end of the story!  We wish you well and hope you and child are doing fine. (It has been years since we had a baby jogger operating on the course, and it would be nice to see both of you soon!)

 

Have a great week!
