    _____________________________________________________________*

    Happy Monday Runners!  We had a great run on Saturday despite the rain and finish off week 16.  It was the longest run for the Full marathon program with a lot of people doing over 20 miles.

    Onto this week . . . Week 17 we begin our tapper in preparation for race day. 

    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.
