The rest of the week....

Reports from Trail hopper Jim Mason are that Tuesday's Chester Woods headlamp run was a great success!   Next week, they're heading to Oxbow park, to explore in the dark!   I see that the trail run happened upon buckets of Corona!   Happy Day!

Additionally, another group of Team R.E.D.ers who are heading to Disney in January gathered for a planning meeting Tuesday evening.  I'm not sure how much planning got done, but we do know, a whole lot of Chocolate Raspberry Port got made!   Again, Happy Day!

• Thursday 6pm:   Team R.E.D. is at the Bears Den in Byron!  Wear Headlamps if you've got 'em.. otherwise, at the least, think reflective clothing!    Routes will be posted Wednesday   Be sure to thank the Bears Den owners when you're there, as they have once again agreed to help sponsor the Charter Bus to Living History Farms!   
• Saturday 7:30am:  Team Off Season Striders at Brothers Bar & Grill (located on South Broadway in Rochester).   The run is always flexible in both mileage and pace.  Come on out and enjoy!   Take in the run, then circle back for a yummy breakfast and social.   Please park in back, so as to not take up all the prime parking for customers who are actually inside the restaurant, while we're out running.   
• Sunday 12:30pm:   Afternoon hike at Oxbow Park just north of Byron.  Meet at the 1st bridge (which is the 2nd parking lot on your left as you enter the park).  We'll get out on the fantastic trails, for a workout and fun!  We'll be sure to get you home in time to see Ponder & The Purple dismantle the powerhouse & currently undefeated, Green Bay Packers  

I know we shared the link below once before, but it's worth another look now that  Lee Hoedl, completed his goal of 61 Half marathon distances in preparation for the NYC Marathon  -- Thanks for the link Renee! ---

Each run was dedicated to someone.  Check out Marathon #10 as that was dedicated to Paul Melby.    Additionally, Hoedl raised over $6200 for Children's Hospital of Boston.   A very nice way job by the runner!
