Thursday 2/28: @ 6:30 p.m. Cobble Hobble 4 mile run. BRING A FRIEND! Good conversation and good coffee to follow. Wear reflective clothing, headlamp and or carry a flashlight.
Saturday 3/2: @7:30 a.m. for a swim or meet Al on the track for a run, speed work. Indoor bike to follow at the Wades thinking around 10 a.m.
