Tuesday Social!

Hey all.. I missed a key event tonight!  There's a Tuesday Night Social at Beetles... it starts at 6pm and goes until you want to go home.. this is for runners, families and friends... there is no running required! 

If you are wanting to get a run in.. there will be some people gathering at the Soldiers Field Memorial parking lot for hills or track work.  Some gather at 5pm.... others at 5:30pm..

Below is what I know for the remainder of the week including a fun 5K at Eastwood park on Team R.E.D. night (Thursday 6pm!)... the information below is a copy and paste from a Team RED distribution list email.. if you'd like on that list, please drop me a note at byron.teamred@gmail.com   

***************************
 Tuesday Night Hills/Track:  5 or 5:30pm... gather at the Soldiers Field Memorial in Rochester.. and choose to hit the track, or roll out to the hills.   Both are great workouts!  Especially in the company of others.  


Wednesday Morning Progressive:  This run is canceled for this week, (at least any version of it that starts and finishes at my place).     If you'd like to lead this run... just drop me a note with details as to when/where.. and I'll share that info with others.  

Wednesday Evening Group Run:  6pm from the Running Room.   This is a weekly run at various paces and distances.

Thursday Team R.E.D.:   6pm at Eastwood Golf course.  Mayo Open... a Free 5K     Description: Course is same as used by the boys at the Mayo High School Invitational, which begins at 4:00 PM the same day.  It begins and ends on the north side of Eastwood Golf Course (Hwy 14 side), and includes a fair number of hills, as you would expect from a quality cross country course.  Fresh produce for all finishers!

There is NO ENTRY FEE for this event, however, do plan to arrive early enough to sign the waiver and get your bib #.    The start time is only approximate, as it will start at the conclusion of the Mayo Invite Cross Country meet.   -- Come even earlier, and watch the high schoolers run... it's a blast! ---

We'll gather post run at the nearby Wicked Moose, (the old McMurphy's at 1201 Eastgate Drive Southeast)... be sure to watch the blog for details as several Team R.E.D. members are discussing a plan to park at the Wicked Moose at 5:30pm.. then run approx 1 mile warmup to Eastwood Golf Course, and run back as a cooldown.     If you elect to park closer to the golf course, please find one of the parking lots on the Hwy 14 side of the golf course, as they do not want us parking at the clubhouse (plus, you'd be a long way from the registration area if you parked at the club house).  

Saturday Morning Long Run:  7am from the RAC is scheduled for 15 miles.  Again, keep an eye on the blog, as sometimes a group of R.E.D. gather early to front load some miles.    The Half marathoners in this group are slated for 11 miles.  

Saturday 8K and 1 Mile:   9am at the Hormel Nature Center in Austin.   You can get more information and/or print a registration form at the  Rochester Track Club  website.
