Wednesday Night Run 5-11-2011

Hello ORC,

A lot of very cool local stuff going on this weekend in and around Decatur, first is the Decatur Garden Tour.  Then it is the 2nd in a series, Decatur Concert on the Square, featuring The Damages.  Also on Saturday at The Marlay House is their street food event.  Not only will The Marlay House have their own Fish & Chips truck, also there will be Yumbii, Tex's Taco, Grace's Goodness, Westside Creamery and Tamale Queen.  A little farther out in our neighboring neighborhoods is the Kirkwood Spring Fling.  The flings musical entertainment features Drivin' N' Cryin'.  A little farther out in East Atlanta is the Brownwood Bike and Run fest.  So go out and enjoy yourselves.

What else is going on?  What events would you like to share?

On the race calendar is the requisite neighborhood festival 5K with the Kirkwood Spring Fling 5K and the Brownwood Fest 5K in East Atlanta.  There are also races in Brookhaven (Bolt 5K), Georgia tech (Janeens Run), and Piedmont Park (5K Walk to End Violence Against Women).  If you want to run up some stairs there is the 2011 Fight for Air Climb at the Equitable Building.  For you multi-sport athletes, Callaway Gardens is hosting a duathlon on Sunday.

This Wednesday you will be running route 8, the East Lake Golf Course run.  The link to the route is at the bottom of this e- mail.  It's one of the oldest as in longest running routes I know of for the group. If there is a 5-mile race to be run, this would make a great route with the exception of maybe taking out the uphill on Garland Av.  In fact some promoter wants to have a 5-mile run in Decatur.  This route will be suggested.  After the run, it's off to Mojo's Pizza for food, drinks and trivia.

Thanks for making the Oakhurst Running Club one of the friendliest running club in Atlanta.
