Adam, Mike and Lee ran Norfolk Saturday at 11 am. Adam and Lee traded places twice but, "unfortunately" for Lee, the 2nd time put Mr. Osmond in front and the rest is history. Well done Adam.

It looked like yet another 169 Society Love Fest, especially at the "railroad." Photo by Derek MacDonald.

Norfolk

Mike is pretty sure he's going to make it. Here's a 2012 Garmin record which shows the lollipop course and the hills. For many, this is the last race of the year. See you there?!

Roxbury full

Tracy, Joe, Lee, Vanessa, Torpedo, and Mike (volunteering). Brian Fidler is also volunteering. Wanda got an email saying she got in (was #47 on the waiting list). But she can't do either it or the 50k cuz she has a Christmas concert rehearsal she forgot about. Her concert is Sunday at First Church in Wethersfield. At 4 PM.

Ok. Roxbury. 8:30 AM. It's gonna be cold but not 2013 cold.

Let's run it!

It did not rain during the 2 miler but it sure was cold at the random draw at the end.

Count 'em!! Rose, Lani, Lee, Joe and Tray all got bling. We had a couple of ringers along too, Bill Gagnon and Karen Prado (Armillei) :) This is what we looked like at the awards.
