Hi, everyone!

-Congrats to our BB crew, who ran through unseasonable heat and humidity to excellent times at the Peak to Creek Marathon in North Carolina yesterday. Sean (‪2:58‬ p.r. and tops in age group), Captain Harry, who narrowly missed winning his age group by 10 seconds, as he qualified for his 13th straight Boston, Leslie L. (‪3:35‬ and 1st in age group), Teri G. (‪3:44‬ and 2nd in age group) and Andrew Z. (‪3:47‬ in first post cancer treatment marathon) are among those, plus other area runners, like Sophie S. (1st in age group), who had great performances.

**Reminders:
-Meet and Greet with Coach Vin Lananna ‪this Monday (10/28) at 6:30 pm‬ at Ragged
-Jack Fest this ‪coming Sunday (11/3)‬ at Panorama. Can’t make it? Please donate. Thanks!

-A great big happy 69th Birthday to our Linda (‪this Monday‬), who continues to inspire all of us!
​
**November marathoners and half marathoners: Please stop by soon, for your race day game plan. I really enjoy these important meetings.

I hope to see many of you this week.

Cheers!
