- Saturday 8pm: Several Team R.E.D. members are taking in the season finale of Aida at the Rochester Repertory Theatre... the show is featuring the fabulous Kasey! - the shows are selling out, so get your tickets (or check with Gwen to see if she has any left as she reserved several seats).
- Sunday 8am: Off Season Striders is gathering at People's Co-op in downtown Rochester. A great place to hop on the trail system and go! A nice morning social follows.

- Tuesday 6:15pm: Tuesday Trail crew is heading to Groen Park in Chatfield to run the Lost Creek trail. This is a favorite for many! Meet at Groen Park and caravan to the starting point and run back to the park!
- Wednesday 6pm: Speed work on the track - I'm certain the weather will cooperate! Join us at the track in Byron located behind the middle school at 601 4th St NW.
- Thursday 6pm: Team R.E.D. is back at the Bears Den. One of our favorites spots on the tour... prepare to run or walk any distance and come back for the social!
