GGRC Runners,
The 2022 Board has had our first meeting to discuss next year's race calendar, and now is a great time for everyone to be thinking about your goals and interests for races next year. Give this some thought and soon you will be receiving a poll to let us know what you're most interested in for next year (road vs trail, 5k vs Marathon, racing in the fall vs spring, etc.).
What: 1st GGRC Club Race of the Year - UCR China Camp
When: Saturday, Jan. 29th
Where: China Camp State Park - San Rafael, CA
Distances: 5k, 10k, Half Marathon
China Camp is a fun trail race to start out the year put on by Urban Coyote Racing - a race organization operated by GGRC member Phil! As usual, we will set up carpool arrangements from the City.
I have reached out for a club discount, so stay tuned. Prices don't increase until January.
I would also like to start a log of any races that folks plan to run either with the club or independently so I can advertise events that our runners may have some friends at. If you've already registered for a run next year that you would like me to include in future announcements, let me know via email or slack. So far we've got club members running in at least the following events:
Kaiser Half Marathon - Golden Gate Park - Feb. 6
Napa Valley Marathon - Napa, CA - Mar. 6
Boston Marathon - Boston, MA - April 18
Sierra Azul Trail Challenge - San Jose, CA - April 30
Bay to Breakers - San Francisco, CA - May 15
More to come!
-Jakob
GGRC Race Coordinator
