We’ll see everyone on Monday. If possible please try to run over the weekend at least once approximately 30 minutes, very easy. You should always have a parent, friend or brother or sister with you, perhaps on a bike when you run. Last but not least, thank you to all our parent volunteers especially Mrs. Duda who once again coordinated the transportation of many of our runners on the PAL team van.

Have a great weekend! Coach Mike
