Hi everyone,
Wow - it's been an unseasonable warm winter so far! Remember that it's important to stay hydrated on these runs. First, congrats to Cheryl "marathon maniac" B. for completing back-to-back marathons a few weeks ago. Great job and good luck with the recovery!
We had a great turnout last Tuesday night for the run/swim at the Centre Club. Thanks Jillian for the suggestion! This Tuesday a group will do a 3.5 mile run/ 30 minute spin/ 1 mile run at the Centre Club. It's going to be a great workout so be sure to join us!
