SLR this week-end & Halloween 5K

Please join Robin for SLR this Saturday morning 6:30AM in front of the American Club.

We will head to Basundhara and over the bamboo bridge. Last week-end it was really muddy, so don't wear your good shoes. I will run out to the BIG bridge (7 miles) and back. Pace will be slow.

Please join us!

We will be gone 24 October so SLR is on your own! We will back for SLR on Halloween 31 October.

There WILL be a Halloween 5K on Friday October 3oth at 3PM with start and finish at Re-Fit on Road 63. Stay tuned for more details.

Glitter ball run

Remember Glitter Ball last year? If you do, then you remember it can be a night of eating, drinking and just staying up late. SO,
If you would like to SLEEP IN SATURDAY MORNING, then come and join me for a slow long run (alternate SLR) on FRIDAY morning 6:30AM leaving from the American Club. I will head towards the bamboo bridge-hopefully its not under water already!

Dave will still be doing SLR Saturday morning for those wanting to come to the regular SLR. Please join him for between 5-8 miles.

After a step back week last week, I will be running 13 miles Friday morning. Please join me for some or all of it.

So, to recap:

GLITTER BALL ALTERNATE SLR FRIDAY MORNING 6:30AM
AMERICAN CLUB FRONT GATE

REGULAR SLR SATURDAY MORNING 6:30AM
AMERICAN CLUB FRONT GATE
