Organic Athlete team for the 5K run at Poplar Spring

[Vlad Konstantinov]

Hello everyone,

I just set up Organic Athlete team for the 5K race to raise money for the poplar spring.

Here is a link to the event site http://www.animalsanctuary.org/events/run.html , which has a link to the registration page

When you register, choose Join Team option, and select Organic Athlete from a drop down list.

Hope many of us could participate, it will be a great opportunity to increase our membership and create a solid group in DC/MD area, as well as meet one another and talk about participating in other running and cycling races to raise awareness of the benefits of the plant based diet for the humans, the animals and the planet!

I am getting me some sneakers and starting training. The course is a bit hilly, perhaps we could meetup at the park in a month or so and go for a training run and then go out for lunch?

Hi everyone,
 
Thanks for setting this up, Vlad!  Scott and I signed up for the team and also had the same thought of going to the course to run it.  It is REALLY hilly and it would be a good idea to get the feel of the course before-hand so you know/remember what to expect.  I think it'd be great to meet up there with the others running under OA.
 
Look forward to some training runs with others, if possible, before the event!
 
Best,
Cynthia

No Jeremy, you have to earn it first! :)   But if you are not interested in checking out the course, you could always meet us for lunch later. Please register when you get a chance. Registration is only $20 and it will go up at a later time.

All, I am not a runner myself, so if you a cyclist just like me, please consider running for the team. It is just 3 miles :)

We will not be there to win the race, just promote Organic Athlete. C'mon!

I think I'd definitely be into doing this. I need to make sure my schedule allows, as I have relatives that may be in town around that time.

Thanks for the info!

Come on now....I thought we were "athletes" not "foodies".  LOL
 
Ok, so this year we go easy on Teams HSUS and PCRM....Just wait till next year, though!  :o)
