Saturday February 9, 2019

Week 2 of February, and we had some great weather for running this past weekend!  Hope the hills made everyone stronger!   Some people, one in particular, while running trails Sunday, wanted to get back to nature in the warmth. (See Pic below) This was one time that nobody chose to keep up with him, as the glare from his white skin was probably blinding.

Please continue to send me your upcoming races, and links, so we can get some fun trips going.  

Keep in mind the local races and vendors, and support them when possible.  Thanks again Tim Roman, and To The finish, for the water stop at Howell this past weekend.
  

This week we will start the Peace, Run, and Harmony training at Ultimate Fit, at 7 am, Saturday.  The BOR group will start from the Y and head Southeast to UF, and join the Walk, Run 812 group for this training run.  It should be close to 14 miles from the Y, and the run from UF is around 3 miles.  There will also be a 20 mile route starting from the Y.
Thanks to Jim Bush, Rise up and Run, and Ultimate Fit for hosting!

As always, have fun, and be safe on the roads!

Goal for 2019
is Not to be Better Than Anyone Else,
But to be Better Than I Used to Be


Here is an opportunity to help out those in need, all while enjoying oneself! We are trying to get a group of runners together for a fun dinner/ dance, so talk it up, and join the fun! Get with Bradley Hayden for advanced tickets.

The Ozanam Family Shelter is hosting a Sock Hop as a fundraiser for the Shelter. The Sock Hop will occur at the VFW on Wabash Ave., Saturday, February 23rd; Tickets are $25 a person. A chicken dinner will be provided with your ticket.
o Doors Open – 5 p.m.
o Dinner Served – 6:30 p.m.
o Music/Dance – 7:30 – 10:30 p.m.
o Silent Auction closes – 8 p.m.
o Chance Auction closes – 8:30 p.m.

There will be a cash bar to get you out on the dance floor. We will also have auctions and half pots. I know $25 is a steep price for a chicken dinner, but this is a fundraiser. At least $12 from that ticket sale will go straight to the Shelter!
There were at least 200 attendees last year and we set a goal of 350 this year.
If you are interested, please let me know asap so I can reserve the tickets for you.
Much Appreciated,

Bradley R. Hayden
