Before we get to the results... let's take a peek at opportunities coming this week.
- Monday 6pm: Monday Maniacs have a treat lined up to celebrate the fall racing success! See the notes from Ramsey below.
- Meet at Chris Ramsey's place WoodRidge Apartments 2804 2nd Street SW in Rochester. We will run or walk past Beatles, Dooleys, Kathy's then to Brothers. You can stop and wait for the pack at any of these places because we will be stopping at each one on the way back to collect people. We will end the run at Beatles on 2nd street with food and more fun.
- Tuesday 6:20pm: The Tuesday Trail crew is heading to Viola! See the notes from Mason below.
It's getting darker so we'll hop onto asphalt for a test of our headlamps. If we start in Viola the trail goes slightly uphill at 1st, but then we turn around and cruise back down to finish :) Check out the map for the meeting spot.. while the address says Eyota... know that mace says it's right in front of the Viola Town Hall.

Last Thursday we were hosted by Randy and Jan Fett! Thanks so much for the hospitality! It was a great place to run.. as we ran a loop that took us from Kasson to Mantorville, and of course, back!
A warm welcome to Christina as she joined Team R.E.D. on Thursday! Christina is kneeling on the left hand side of the picture below. Welcome Christina!
The Fett's had recently returned from a trip to Rome where Randy ran a marathon! He was honored and recognized along with some of the other international runners. Of those pictured, to the best of our knowledge, Randy ran the shortest marathon of them all! (you'll have to ask him to explain that!).
