Upcoming Racing and News

By now everyone knows the routine -- show up by 5. Decide what sort of run you want to do and hopefully someone will join in with you. As always the "group" run should be some sort of speedwork.

Other stuff:

Adam asked in comments when the time changes again. That shouldn't be necessary until Daylight Saving Time ends, which is Sunday the 7th. So there will be today and next week at the 5:00 PM start time with the time moving earlier on the 9th of November. (Which means there are only 2 weeks at that time before the week of Thanksgiving. We will still do something on that Tuesday, but they have a walk your dog night so it was crowded last year.)

TRY is winding down for the season. :-( Sounds like that means that there are only 4 weeks remaining and perhaps some finale that week of Thanksgiving!

But that doesn't mean the fun is over. There are some fun things coming up. A few things I plan to take part of:

The Halloween Run (5k Brueggers Bagels Run) at Beaver Lake, this coming Sunday morning. Price is $22. Wear a costume, or not. Let me know if you will be there and I'll keep an eye out for you. Details here.

The Jingle Bell Run (5k) at Long Branch Park on Sunday, November 21st. $17 now or $25 day of event. Details here.

Some sort of walking/running night with dogs included at Lights on the Lake. (Tuesday night November 23rd.)

Details here.

The last chance trail run/pancake breakfast at Highland Forest on Saturday morning December 11th. Its a choose your own adventure run (or skip the run completely) and then eat in the lovely new lodge. Three of us adventured out there last year and dared to run a little way in the snow and the crazy hills. It was fun and the breakfast made it a nice outing.

Details here.

Ok, if you are still reading, lets have some fun. What costume ideas are there for this Sunday mornings Halloween Run at Beaver Lake?

Aaron - Flipper the Dolphin?

Aubrey - A ghost? (Since she moved back to Syracuse but is invisible at TRY.)

Ally - A figure skater?

Adam - An early bird?

Various members - some sort of crutches, casts, knee braces, foam rollers etc to commemorate an injury filled season? (Some sort of MASH unit group costume.)

Me - A Douchebag?

Etc...

Feel free to post your own creative costume ideas in the comments section. :-)
