October is nearing it's end, and Fall continues to progress! With just a few warm days this week, we seem to be trending toward colder temperatures and all the good things that come with them. Some of you may have run the Franklin Street Beer run, and if so, I'm sure you had a good time. Mom O Six, Michelle Walker found another marathon in Tennessee, and not only came home with a good time, but the bling that comes with, First Masters Female in the race! Congrats Michelle, you are an inspiration to all! Congrats to the overall Male and Female winners in the Indiana Brewery Running Series, Kristy and Chris! Hope the runs were worth the beer!
This weekend, the BOR group will start out around 6:20 am Saturday from the Y, and run out to meet Run Walk 812 at Mesker Parking lot, at 7 am. Shari has put together a couple of routes from that point, and claims only one hill. The Loop Group will be in the area, starting at Barker and Clairemont at 7 am. Routes will be below.
In Local racing, keep a look out for the Virtual races listed on the sites below. I don't see any other local races this weekend, so if you know of one that I have missed, please post to the Facebook page.
Have a great running weekend out there!
