We had a great turnout this morning and a ton of participants are hitting the 25 mile mark with a good number now hitting 50 miles! Thank you always to our volunteer crew that help hand out runner bar codes, run the scanners, and update our 100 mile club charts in the cafeteria.
Another big thank you to Brown’s Shoe Fit on Main Street for donating the shoe laces as an added incentive for kids that hit 50 miles!
There are two free opportunities which I have listed below. There are also two other opportunities that come with a cost you can find at this 100 Mile Club Link. The free Turkey Trot in Louisville is a great time but the parking gets tight so give a few extra minutes in the morning and don’t forget to register. Maybe I’ll see you there!
