Survivor Series 5K

Fits, 

Interested in running 3.1 miles in the snow this weekend? If so, the Rockford Road Runners are hosting the first of a series of 4 trail runs this Saturday at noon at Rock Cut State Park. Entry is $20 but I believe there is a price break if you enter all 4 races. Each race is held the third Saturday of the month always at noon and each race grows by 5K ie: next month will be a 10K than 15K then 20K in March. If you complete all 4 you get a "Survivor" T-shirt and bragging rights! Cash prizes to those that place in their age groups. For more information visit www.rockfordroadrunners.org. 

If  you'd like to carpool give me a jingle or txt @ 630-605-1255

TECUMSEH Finale

Hey Al!

Eventful to say the least. Woke up to 4" of snow ontop of the cars outside of the hotel room the morning of the marathon. Bus drivers refused to drive the runners to the start so the race director changed the point to point aspect of the run to an out and back from the finish. Oh, and we had to find our own way to the finish line! We started the race on time and 700 brave souls headed out on the mostly single track course with snowflakes sticking to our eyelashes!

Al finished with an impressive 4:01, BGR received a "valiant effort" after having to drop at mile 21 due to a possible bone break in his foot. Amy #2, Special K, and Dave finished together at 5:02, Stain muscled through some cramping legs with a time of 5:35 (I think) and Amy Danger Hain cut nearly a half an hour off her time at 6:08. Good job to all despite the changes and terrain, weather conditions etc . . .

This was an awesome weekend. Hope to have a few pics to post possibly video.......

IM HAWAII HOLIDAY PARTAY

Fits,

Just want to get a head count, how many of you would be interested in a Ironman World Championship viewing / holiday party on Dec. 18th beginning around 3 ish? This would be a potluck style get-together. Ron and Amy Hain have been gracious enough to host at their home in Sugar Grove. The Kona, Hawaii IM begins at 3 p.m. on CBS and will last about an hour and half.

If you'd like to make a Misfit day of it, join Al, Stan, Shain and I'm sure others in Rockford for the first of the Rockcut Survivor Series 5K at noon. Meet at the Wade's house 515 East Lee Street, Plano at 10 a.m. and we can caravan up to Rockford. If you choose to register the day of, bring $20. If you register for all four events (always held the 3rd Saturday of the month at noon culminating with a 20K in March) you get a price break and a T-shirt. Visit www.rockfordroadrunners.org for more info.

Peace Out!
