March 26th Run

We had several groups join us this morning at different times...5:30am to 7:15am.

Teri got in 15 miles in her preparation for the Fargo Marathon!!!

10 came for a run this morning! Runners present were Jim, Jay, Lee, Julie, Teri, Rebecca, Becky, Russ, Leah, and Joe (w/Ruckus). Runs varied from long, to longer, to very long.

Russ chose to run toward home, while Becky did some grocery shopping...so no telling how far he might have gone.

7:15am at the SMS front doors...let me know if you want to get out earlier and I can meet you. I'm sure I will be out by 5am.

March 19th Run

Total of 11 runners this morning for various runs at different times. Jim, Jay, and Kevin got out for a very early start at 5:00am, then met up with Mickie at 6:15. We then picked up Rebecca, Becky, and Russ at the lights at 6:30, and finally Leah and Joe(Ruckus) at the school at 7:15. Jack and Jordan did 4 to finish up the morning. Notable runs for today: Kevin did 20, Jay made it through 14, and Leah ran for about 12 or 13. I ended up with 30 today.

7:15 at the SMS front doors. Let me know if you want to get out earlier and I can meet you. Just so you know, there has been a group meeting at 6:00 or 6:30am at the lights as well for extra miles, if that works out better for you. I am also available to meet earlier than that.


We have had anywhere from 7 to 10 people show up for our Saturday runs for the last 2 months! Great turnout! Everyone should be glad that the weather has improved! Be sure to ask Mickie what happens when you cancel.

March 12 Run

7:15 at the SMS front doors. Let me know if you want to get out earlier and I can meet you. For those who don't know, some have been meeting at the stop lights at either 6:00 or 6:30am for a few extra miles.

It was a miserably cold and windy day for a run, but 8 brave souls made it, some meeting up very early to get in some extra miles.  Runners in attendance were:  Jim, Kevin, Lee, Jay, Teri, Becky, Russ, and Chloe.  Runs varied in distance from 6-25 miles, plus we got in some "ding, dong, ditch" along the way to harrass a runner who shall not be named.

Also, incase you are interested, I will again be doing my 17 hour fundraising run on a treadmill in the lobby of the Rochester Area Family Y to benefit their Strong Kids Campaign. This fund provides scholarships for needy kids to attend Y camps and use their facilities. My run will be on Friday, April 22nd. 2 other treadmills will be set up in the lobby for others to run with me and donate, if they choose. You do not need to be a member of the Y to attend. Please consider stopping by to run with me for a bit if you are able.
