      _____________________________________________________________*

      I can't believe we are almost done with the Spring 2019 season with only 4 more group runs before the race. We are in taper mode as we begin the recovery process so our legs fell freash for the race. This post has a lot of info in it so make sure you look it over. We have a big group run on Saturday and a fun social event set for Saturday evening.

      See you in the morning. 

      Saturday Social - Punch Bowl Social 

      After much deliberation, we have decided to move our social event for this weekend to the Punch Bowl Social Club. Knowing we have a start of a new season coming and our awards ceremony which will have a ticket price to it we thought it would be best to scale back and pick a free event to save everyone a little money. So this weekend we are heading to:

      Punch Bowl Social San Diego
      Saturday 5/18/19 @ 7:15pm
      1485 E St, San Diego, CA 92101

      This is an open event so friends and family are invited to participate in the fun. See you then.

      Summer Season SignUps

      If you are thinking about signing up for the summer season this is the time to do it before prices go up on 5/18/2019. Hope you will join us as it will be an exciting season filled with new runs, track workouts and a few other surprises I have up my sleeve.  (CLICK)
