Fun Run Anyone? March 7th, 2010

This is separate from our normal meetups, but I was wondering if anyone would be interested in participating in a 5km fun run/walk... it is about 7 weeks away still. It is Sunday, March 7th, at a very early 8:30. My fitness level at the moment is pretty bad, and a target/committment like this usually helps me to get moving! (But honestly, this is not about PBs for me at least, there is a stroller involved after all, I just need a little push in an active direction)

I plan to test out the route (very near my home) to make sure it is stroller-friendly... but I already know from the map on the website that it goes through 2 parks on trails (Saxe Point and MacCauley Point)- so you would likely need (or could borrow) a robust jogging-type stroller. I will let everyboady know whether or not it is suitable at the next meeting at the latest.

The sign-up fee is relatively low too - $12, and limited to 50 registrants. Pass the word around and feel feel to invite otehrs from outside the usual group - the more the merrier!
