Beer Mile Week!

I'd like to start by saying Many Thanks to all the volunteers and participants at this past weekends Nut House Challenge! We've received a lot of positive feedback, and suggestions to make things even better!  - I've got a bit of a full schedule today, but will get pictures posted as soon as possible!

The fun doesn't end with the Nut House - in fact, it keeps ramping up as we have a full week of Fitness & Fun wrapping with the Beer Mile this Thursday!

Monday 6pm: Monday Maniacs are heading to LTS for a great group run, or walk if you prefer.  This location offers some great route options, and of course, a wonderful patio with tasty post run beverages!
Tuesday 6:15pm:  Tuesday Trail Crew is at Eastwood in Rochester. They are teaming with TerraLoco this week with a chance to Demo Soloman and Hoka! Eastwood offers some great loops, so you can try a pair, circle back and try out another! - Prizes and social post run.
Tuesday 9pm: The Night Owls enjoy the later evening run and especially with the weather we've been having, it sure seems like a great idea!  Join the crew at West Silver Lake Park. Bring your favorite recovery beverage or food.
Wednesday 6pm: Two of our sponsors are teaming for a group run. Active PT is joining TerraLoco for an active warmup and 3 mile run.  It all kicks off from TerraLoco.
Thursday 6pmThe Team R.E.D. Beer Mile! - The Championship Division meets the international rules of Beer  Mile, while the Open Division will be just as you recall, using tap beer!
