Greetings friends. We've had great running/biking/being outside weather this week and hope that all are getting a chance to enjoy it. Have added several races to the calender last few weeks - note the Bob Wimer race coming up in 2 weeks in Staunton. If you're interested in joining our running group, we'll be out on Sunday morning in GHP as usual starting at 6 a.m. at the duck pond.
