Hi Folks,
Love the quote from the House hearings: “You can’t promote principled anti-corruption action without pissing off corrupt people, ” by George Kent when he testified before Congress today.
LOOKING AHEAD: 11/30/19 SATURDAY 9 am. 2 Mile TURKEY TROT. S/F by Bolinas Museum at 48 Wharf Rd, Bolinas. Check web site: Bolinasmuseum .org for more details. I will be there to time the event and look forward to seeing some of you participate in this funky, fun event. Baked goods provided at the end. It pays to pre-register if you want to save entry fee money.
Missed seeing some of our group at the Redwood 5K last Sunday; was a good race to establish your running fitness benchmark. A similar race distance ( though 4.5 miles) is coming up in December with the Christmas Relays (12/15). Teams consist of four runners, each running 4.5M around Lake Merced. It will help the Tamalpa Club age/sex division captains to have you commit to the event in advance to make the pre-reg deadlines (we can take advantage of a lower entry fee).
