November 2014 Schedule

November Schedule

Hello everyone,

I want to send out many ‘congratulations’ to everyone who completed their respected distances this fall… The ones I know Lesley and her incredible marathon time in Detroit, Mary at Marine Corps and the Bear Chase, Kristy, Jim, Cindy, Wendy, Mellissa and Deborah at Rock-n-Roll, Dani and Lori at the Kooky Spooky, Jo Ann at her ½ Ironman, of course Stacy and Ironman Boulder and the many of us that ran the Hot Chocolate Race. You have all done amazing and inspired so many of us to continue on. Great Job! I’m sorry if I missed anyone. I know Denea is running New York this weekend and I believe Deborah is still ‘finding’ her marathon.

I’m not going to put it on the schedule, but Nancy and I with an occasional additional friend have been running the Ralston Creek trail from Oberon Middle School on Tuesday Evenings at 5:30pm everyone is welcome to join us, just bring your headlamps. These runs are usually about 3 miles, somewhat of a tempo run. I will post on Facebook if we give in to the cold or the dark before the next schedule comes out.

Please remember that our Scholarship Fundraiser is this Sunday at Goddard on 87^th and Indiana at 8:00 am. Please plan on attending as this is our big scholarship for the season. I will be sending out letters and emails to the various high school coaches and counselors in Arvada so we should have some great candidates again this year.

 

Schedule

November 9^th, 2014 – 8:00 am – I will need someone to lead this day as I am running The Great Candy Run with the Girls on the Run – We will run the Clear Creek Trail meeting at Anderson Park.
