Fall is fast approaching...do you have plans to run?

Hi Runners; as we wrap up one program, two more are set to get underway.  Congrats to our Advanced 5K runners who have successfully completed their 8-week program with last weekend's Navy 5K race in Halifax.  Well done!

And, even better still...most of them have committed to the 10K program that started up today in preparation for the Valley Harvest races this Thanksgiving weekend.  As these runners are quickly finding out; their initial 5K program; "The Chance of a Lifestyle" was aptly named...they have all been assimmilated!

Similarly, we have 5K graduates from the school board team of runners who have expressed an interest in a workplace advanced 5K program...again, we have created another group of repeat offenders...so to speak.

If you have not yet set your sites on a fall race, there is still plenty of time...call your local running club, store or group of like-minded friends...as the leaves change there is no better way to experience the onset of a new season than running in the great outdoors with a friend or two or more...Run Strong and Be Well.
