Lani ran the 5K and then took these 2 pix of Tom Walsh and me finishing last night's Newington Fun Run. Linda handed out the place # paper slips (while brandishing a "smoking gun").
Lani, Lee, and Larry placed (hmmm, does the letter L help?) Mike was ahead of Lee at the end (but failed to carry his bib # out to enough decimal places). Christine, despite a hip that's not 100%, was ahead of Mike and Lee. T minus 5 Tracy and Jason were both ahead of the three of us. Brent and Lani were super close. We missed our Barbara who could not make it. Maggie Rose (not officially on the team but made the picture) was her stand-in!
Well done Team Brickyard!

Chatted w/ Peter during this morning's Brickyard run and was told that he and Lani have been running in Fisher Meadows Recreation Area. Here's a map.
Maybe we could put together a group run there.
Mike took a group picture this morning. Will post as soon as I get it. He is running the 8K in Bethel tomorrow.
Peter is running a race in Salisbury, CT tomorrow. Here's what Greystone Racing says about it.
If you are looking for a race, then the fourth of July is the day. Lake Wononscopomuc in Salisbury, CT has an 8K road race. The race starts at 8:00 AM sharp. The start and finish is located at the Town Grove, 42 Ethan Allen St, Lakeville. The best part is; it's free!.
Christine is running a 10K in NYC tomorrow. She writes
She also took some pictures of, as she put it, our friend this morning.

We are 4 now, will soon be 5, and then we'll be 6. The key issue, who owns black running shorts?
Lani started it. Lee and she promoted it. The Petit organization has been very helpful. Currently, Lani, Lee, Mike, and Larry are on the team. Brent'll be added soon (he's registered but will be added to the team probably today). Barbara will be registering soon. You?
Bricks are red so obviously our team color *has* to be red. Black goes well w/ red so see if you own any black trunks.
I am not sure what exactly it means to be a group / team. Are there group / team winners? If so, how is that determined? If we win will we get prize money? International fame?
July 10th. If you're running, do your best. If you're not, root for the Red and Black!
