This week - Great Week!

There are many opportunties to keep moving this week!

Tuesday 5pm:  Track workout - indoor track at RCTC field house - this space is open to the public, and free of charge.   Bring a dry pair of running shoes to put on after you arrive.  If you can't get there right at 5, come when you can.  Last winter we had people coming and going, and it all works.

Tuesday 6pm:   Runners Social at Beattles in Rochester.  No running required!  Stop out for the social!   There is no membership to any club required to join the social.  

Wednesay 6pm:  Group run from the Running Room.  Various paces/distances

Thursday 6pm:  Team R.E.D. arrives at the north pole!   Please send in your latest miles to Lori lbelaen@gmail.com  on Wednesday 12/15 (include anything you ran or plan to run on that day as well).   Lori and I will then calculate how far we need to run to reach the North Pole, I believe it will be about a mile to arrive, as you have been doing fantastic!

What will represent our arrival?  We'll run to the RED Kettle at Byron Marketplace, presenting an opportunity to make a  contribution (optional).  How much to contribute?  Any contribution is fantastic, but one idea bounced around was, look at how many miles you've run to 'get here!' and contribute a 'per mile' contribution.. i.e. 10 cents per mile.. or whatever number you like.     After the RED Kettle stop, you can continue on the typical 3, 4, or 6 mile routes, then circle back to the Den for the fun!  -- or you can hit the north pole, and go right back to the Den! ---

Saturday 7:30am:  Off Season Striders is gathering at Renee's home in Rochester.   She is one fantastic host for the running community and others! Thanks Renee!

******************************

New Year's Eve is coming soon!   Joe & Sara Ryan have invited Team R.E.D. to their home for a great night on New Years Eve!   The party will kick off at 7pm... and there is a theme: 

Wear your Ugliest/favorite Christmas sweater.  Also, wear your most prized/most important finishers medal for bling. 

The Ryans are providing Hot Turkey Sandwiches and Sodas.   Please bring a dish to share, and your own alcoholic beverages.  Also, if you'd like to get a run or walk in pre-party, 6pm would be the time to meet!
