Quarantine still has us in its grips so we will continue to offer you 2 options for your weekly run:

1. For those that are interested we will do the West Lawn run - 90th St - park here -- Route here: Southbound or West around to old Spring -- Clearly there still is NO COFFEE

2. Virtual Run -- go do your run on Saturday and post a pic on our Facebook page!

For anyone that might be interested in a self-guided race....the 5kevents group has joined with the national "We run the parks" group to offer a "race" on 5/2/2020 -- Link here -- I created a Team named Run Racine.

Stay safe and healthy!

Additional notes:

#1. for those of you that are unaware one of our dear running partners, Dan DeMatthew, was in a bike accident last week and is currently in the hospital (http://www.journaltimes.com/articles/2009/08/12/local_news/doc4a81dc426904e628155306.txt). From what I hear he is doing pretty well and Amy and the kids are doing their best to cope with the situation. One of the boys even created a Caring Bridge site so that people can follow his progress: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/dematthew. Please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers over the weeks to come.

#2. for anyone that is running the Madison Mini Marathon (http://www.madisonminimarathon.com/) on Saturday, August 29th...David has said that he will pick up everyone's running packet on that Friday (there is no race day pick up!!) but that means he will need your confirmation card and a photo-copy of a photo ID. Please bring these items to coffee this week and I'll get them to David early next week (he will not be running with us this week).

Sat. Aug. 16 – and Race Day (see note from Joe)

From Joe Sosa:

Hello friends and running partners,

I wanted to let everyone know about the Ophelia Project Run/Walk taking place next Saturday, August 16 @ 6pm. The run/walk will include both a competitive 5k run and a fun 2 mile walk.

This event will be taking place on the Racine Lakefront at North Beach. I will include links to both the home page of the event and an online registration site. The courses will run around the lakefront on mostly roads/pathways in the surrounding area, however a portion of the 5k run will be on the beach itself which should make for a unique experience.

The Ophelia Project is an organization that promotes healthy peer relationships in schools
("anti-bullying") and has a chapter in Southeast Wisconsin.

Many local downtown businesses have donated prizes for the event that will be raffled off following the completion of the run/walk. A local artist will be making the award medals.

This is a family event! Invite the little ones, the non-runners and the grandparents! There
also will be post race party at the North Beach Oasis.

The registration cost is $20 before August 10 and $25 after for individuals. There are also family and team discounts.

Come out and support a new late summer event in Racine!

Joe Sosa
