New Members and a Look at the Week Ahead!

Please welcome our new members Sean, Julie and Greg!  They have all been around Team R.E.D. for awhile now, but finally received their official welcome!   

Watch out for Sean, he has an alias on Facebook! 

Julie & Greg sporting the shirts and shades! 

**********************************

Note:  For most of the group runs, it's now getting dark before we finish.  Be sure to wear reflective gear, and headlamps!  Make sure you can see and be seen!

Monday 6pm:  The Monday Maniacs are heading to LTS Brewing Company located at 2001 32nd Ave NW Rochester.  With their own beer and some of best popcorn in town, this is a great place for a run or walk!  Join us!   http://www.ltsbrewing.com/
Tuesday 6pm:  TerraLoco continues their 5K charity series. With a $5 donation you get to run, and help others!  Stop in and visit them, as they are also a great Team R.E.D. sponsor!   http://www.runterraloco.com/?page_id=674
Tuesday 6:15pm:  The Tuesday Trail Crew is at it again!  This time it's Chester Woods, gather at the parking lot near the beach house.  Sounds like the post workout may land at the Wicked Moose!
Wedensday 5:45pm:   Speed work on the track in Byron.  Due to the earlier darkness we've been shifting the start time of the speed work, and we've done so again.  This time, we'll start the speed session at 5:45pm so if you need to warm up, please try to arrive a bit earlier.   The track is located behind the Middle School at 601 4th St NW Byron.
Thursday 6pm:  Team R.E.D. heads to Broadway Pizza at 4144 Hwy 52 in Rochester.  This location gives us great access to the trails, and away we go!  Plan on a route of 3, 4 or 6 miles and come back for the fun!

Get on the Bus Gus and set yourself Free!

Nearly Naked 5K and Bus trip!   - The finisher robe and swag is only guaranteed to those registered by the end of this month. 

Details of the bus and all below..  you do not need to be a member of Team R.E.D. to join us, however, you do need to register for the event under Team RED and send me an email at byron.teamred@gmail.com to reserve your spot on the bus.   

*Note: this event is in place of Living History Farms as many of you have requested a new bus destination... and Wendy found this!  -- We'll give it a go this year, and see what people think!

The Nearly Naked 5K is a race in which you will wear layers of clothing, and take some off at each mile marker, ending Nearly Naked! - but not worries, they will get you quickly covered in a plush robe at the finish line!   What a great way to help support a clothing drive. 

• Visit http://www.runwalk.events/EventInformation.asp?eID=13695 to register for the Nov 14th Nearly Naked 5K.   
• Use the Team Red discount code to save $5 -  the code is Team Red (spelled just like that)   
• When you register look for Team R.E.D., we just set up the team tonight, so if you don't see it on the drop down list, then Type it in the Box as Team R.E.D. (spelled just like that).  
• Once you've registered, send me an email stating "I registered and I want on the bus!"

Cost:  Approx 70-75 bucks for race and bus ride if you register by 10/15 (then it goes up $5).
Bus Leaves/Returns When?:  It's a 12-hour trip.   We'll depart Byron at 6am ... make a stop for more people in Rochester then head east!  - if we get any takers from the Winona area, we'll pick them up along I-90... the more the merrier!  We should return at 6pm. 
Free Beer?   Yes! Team R.E.D. will provide the beer!
