Sunday Distance Run for 1/17

All this talk about the WRC Annual Meeting and Brunch, I almost forgot to post about our Sunday Distance Run!

We’ll meet tomorrow, January 17, 2016 at 8:00 a.m. in front of the CB2 store in Georgetown. There will be three pace groups running various distances – but something for everyone! Afterwards, we’ll relax at Dean & Deluca.

Hope to see you there!!

Why Dog Tag Bakery?

There are tons of restaurants in Georgetown, but none have as great a mission as Dog Tag Bakery: supporting disabled veterans and their caregivers through valuable work experience and education. By providing education and work experience, Dog Tag Bakery ensures that veterans are business ready, competitive, and employable.

Dog Tag Bakery is a beautiful space just off of M Street NW in Georgetown. Their staff are friendly and wonderful to work with – we just couldn’t think of a better place to host our Annual Meeting!

SDR for 1/10 and Annual Meeting Info!

Happy New Year, WRC! We had a great run last Sunday to kick off the new year. It looks like everyone is getting in gear for their spring training cycles!

Sunday Distance Run for January 10, 2016
We’ll meet at 8:00 a.m. in front of the CB2 store in Georgetown for our next Sunday Distance Run. We’ll have three paces groups – 7:00/7:30, 8:00/8:30, 10:00/10:30 – running anywhere from 8-20 miles. Afterward, we’ll meet at Dean and Deluca for coffee and carbs.

Annual Meeting and Brunch
It’s hard to believe another year has passed since our last annual meeting.  This year, we’ll hold the meeting following our Sunday Distance Run. Fear not – if you’re injured, don’t feel like running, can’t make an early run, or just want to learn more about the group, you can join us at the meeting!

Here’s the details so far:

What: Annual WRC Meeting and Brunch
When: Sunday, January 24, 11:15 a.m. (following the SDR)
Where: LOCATION TBD – stay tuned! It will be somewhere in Georgetown…
Cost: $5 – includes a full brunch at a fine Georgetown establishment
Attire: sweaty brunch is always acceptable with WRC, but regular clothes are fine, too (although we might not recognize you all dressed up!)
