What glorious warm weather we've had this fall, perfect for running! Feels like the season has been extended by a month. Hopefully you've all had a chance to get out in nature for runs, hikes, bike rides, and walks. One exciting new thing the club is trying is posting on Meetup, which is a platform for organizing in-person and virtual gatherings of people with similar interests. We have a group and will post events such as our Saturday run and Kavish's new event of Tuesday 6 AM runs in Chatham. He and Jim Jenkinson went out this week and enjoyed it. We are trying Meetup for six months; we've already had a few people join our Rose City Runners group - hopefully they'll come and join us in person! 

 

We'd love to promote all the races our club members participate in! Please let us know what you ran in and send photos to barbararushman@yahoo.com. Also, let Barb know what local races you plan to run; we can promote it at Saturday runs and try to get more members to join you! See the end of this newsletter about starting a 'brag board' about our running accomplishments, no matter how minor they may seem.
