Jacqueline: I wrote to you another time regarding a new route for the SF Marathon. I wanted to update you that we are close to getting the route established, and are coordinating with those in charge of the SF Half in order to run them from the same start and finish (Howard Wood Field) – but more on that later.
Because of your interest in running, and your work with the Argus Leader, I wanted to tell you about an upcoming informal charity event. Each year, a group of 10-20 runners gather for our own version of a jingle-bell run/pub crawl. We “pass the hat” and donate money each year to the Argus Leader’s Lend a Hand campaign. It is somewhat anonymous as we donate in the name Top Hat Striders” (after the location of our first annual run).
Just in case you or someone from the Argus is interested in covering (or running with) our group and cause; we are meeting this Thursday night (12/20) at 6:30 at J.L. Beers, downtown. We have a 3 mile course laid out where we hit another watering hole (Russ’s Silver Moon – by Falls Park) and run through the Falls Park light show, and then back to downtown. Most are dressed in one form of elf-reindeer-santa themed outfits.
Be well.
