 Here's a look at the next few days ahead.. 

Tuesday 6:15pm: Trail Run at Oxbow Park. Jim Mason is our fearless leader, here are the details from Jim: "We'll start from the 1st bridge parking area and run a 7 mile loop around the park. If enough people show up there can be options for shorter distances.   Bring a beverage for after the run if you choose."   If you have any questions, Jim can be reached at 507-951-2415
Tuesday 6:30pm:   Trail Hike at Oxbow Park.  Some members who would rather not run the trails, have decided to gather for a hike.  Same as the running crew, meet at 1st bridge and then come back for the post hike banter at the shelter.

Wednesday 5:30pm: Speed work on the track in Byron. If you don't know what 'track work' is.. come on out and learn.  The workout flies by!   The Byron track is located behind the middle school.
Thursday 6pm: Team R.E.D. Tropical Night!     (think tropical and dress accordingly!) If you are thinking, Tropical? What?  This sounds tough, just look at these guys, it's that easy!  Of course, grass skirts and coconut bras are completely welcome as well!

  
We'll be starting at City Hall in Byron as there's a Stage Coach Trail open house taking place at City Hall, with updates & maps provided.  I'd like to start us to meet there, (about 15 minutes of checking it out, providing input and overall showing a sign of Team R.E.D. support of the extended trails.   We'll wrap up the run with a social back at the Bears Den!   Routes will be in the typical ranges of 3, 4 or 6 miles.
