Sunday Run

Posted on by

It looks like we might get our Sunday Social Run in just under the wire, before rain and cooler weather return. Please join us tomorrow at 8 am in front of the CB2 for our weekly jaunt around the greater D.C. area. We’ll be back to Dean & Deluca after the run for coffee.

Congratulations to all of our Cherry Blossom 10 Milers. I saw Bruce Reynolds, Zach Byrum, Pete B.Runner, “Canadian Pete” Marshall, Adam Stolzberg, Michael Navarette, and Scott Kavoogian, and I know that a bunch more WRC folks were out there as well.

Good luck to our Boston Marathoners on Monday! Remember, rain is just pain leaving the body. (That makes no sense, right?)
