Re: Christmas Lights Run - Thursday night 6:30 pm

In light of the weather - and the fact that this run is meant to be a 'fun run' - I am officially postponing this run.  

For those that are interested we could do this on Sunday evening -- think on it and we will discuss on Saturday.  I will re-post and send out a new Christmas Lights Run if we decide to do this.

Please be careful out there and we'll see each other on Saturday!

Bill

This email assumes that the world does not end on the 21st...if it does well...Good luck everyone!! (NASA Video here)

I know that we decided that we would run on the Northside this week but since we are in for some weather tonight (stay tuned to see if we cancel the Christmas Lights Run tonight) and the chances are the snow will not melt by Saturday...I'm making an executive decision to move the run. Sorry :(

This Saturday we will do the Cemetery Run – Route Here


Please park here
