Please please please, if you're not racing come out to volunteer or be a "Spectathlete!" We could really use a rowdy bunch out there!

Following the race come down to "the Land" (Al's Parent's property across from their home) @ noonish or whenever we're done at the race. Please bring your own food (there will be a grill and a camp fire) and drinks, kids are totally welcome! It'll be a good red neck time!

WOW 7/18-7/21

Here's a very short WOW,

Thursday 7/18: @ 6:30 p.m. Cobblestones 4-5 mile run.
Friday 7/19: A few of us are headed down to Versailles, IN for an XTERRA, we'll be doing a pre ride and run of the course. The more the merrier!
Saturday 7/20: XTERRA Versailles
Sunday 7/21: Oswego Triathlon! Roll call, who's doing this race? Stan Towers and I will be filling the role of SUPER FANS! If anyone is not racing and would like to cheer on your fellow Misfits we'll head over to the race around 7 a.m. meet us there. We also have some flyers for the HolidayMan to hand out at the tri we could use some help.

Big announcement, Saturday is Karen Kanday Quickie Kalicki's birthday, and she's racing Sunday in Oswego! I'm sure she'd love it if we could give her a big MISFIT showing at the tri!!!!

So in closing, I would like a headcount of who's racing in Oswego and could I also get a headcount for those racing the HolidayMan the following weekend?

Cheers y'all!
