10/15 Run/Walk

Well fall is here and the trees have turned so why don't we head to Parkside and take in the colors.
I've talked with Coach Henkes and there is a meet here on Saturday with buses rolling in at 8am.  He has asked us to park in the parking lot just inside the park (near the bathrooms) so please Park here

Re: Saturday, July 30th

It would be in bad form if we didn't wish Tony a fond farewell.  Tony will be heading up to MN to take on a new job and a new running group.  We hope we will see him from time to time when he visits his friends here in Racine.  Maybe we will need to schedule a race in the Minneapolis area next year?!?!
 
Good Luck Tony!!

Saturday, April 23

Do I rant now or at the end…decisions…you'll see my rant below the announced run.
Five people at coffee last week…decision was Panera…7:00am start.
Routes:

*** Don't forget the Ice Age needs 1 more person to help out…please contact Bill (william.folk@cnh.com) if you can help out on Sat. May 14th (Bill is thinking about running the trails before set up of the aid station!)
********************************************
Okay here is my rant -- not meant to be taken literally but at the same time I am perplexed:
What in the world were you 5 thinking?!?!  We just ran Panera the week prior!! 
We have 2 runs within 1 mile and 2 more within 2 miles of Panera…so why would we choose to do Panera again when there are 4 other viable choices nearby?!?!
Okay I feel better! 
See you on Saturday.
