trail races, runs, events

[Tim Looney]

Mark your calendars - I have a date/time for the Night of the Day of the Dead run.

We will meet at the Argo Canoe Livery on Saturday October 31. Run starts at 6:45 pm. (sunset is 6:29/civil twilight ends at 6:59 pm). The course will be marked and will be between 5 and 6 miles. Bring your headlamps/flashlights. If you have participated in previous years you will know that this us a fun/casual run followed by a gathering for food and beverages at a local restaurant. Details to follow.

If you plan to attend please send me a message letting me know you will be there. Also, if you think you might join us for the gathering after the run let me know so that I can choose an appropriate venue.
