Saturday is Hoppin'!

Thanks to the Schmitts for hosting a very fun evening of Team R.E.D., Costumes and Cheer!  The idea of collecting canned goods and outerwear is a very nice touch as well!   Thanks for having us over!

Congrats to the Nepstads, as their son Shane qualified for State in Cross Country!  He worked very hard toward this goal, and achieved it... what a fantastic way to complete his high school cross country career! 

Here's the low down for Saturday... 

• Saturday 7:30am:  Off Season Striders are starting at Newt's North (across the street from Menards).  They get out at various paces and typically have routes that can easily be shortened or lengthened to meet your desire.   Of course, they'll end at Newt's... for a yummy treat and some great social time. 
• Saturday 9:30am:   Spirit Run is always fun!   The Monster 10K starts at 9:30.. the Fearless 5K rolls at 9:35 (there's also a Witchy 1K for the kids - that takes place at 9am!)... Awards and a Country Inn & Suites Raffle Drawing take place at 11am.  
• Saturday 10:30am:   The Grahaminator comes back to Oxbow Park!   This is 10 miles of pure trail fun!   - With No Entry Fee!   -- 10 miles is too far?  Then go ahead and cheat!  It's ok in the run... just come on out to the park and have fun!   Walk or run any distance on the trails..  then hang out with your favorite beverage post race...  Gather at the 1st Bridge (2nd parking lot on your left as you enter the park)... bring a cooler!
