Wednesday Night Run 10-19-2011

Hello ORC,

With a high in the 80s on Monday and temps falling for the rest of the week; does 80 degrees count as Indian Summer even though it was just one day. This Saturday, Glenwood Estates is having a neighborhood yard sale. It will be Food Day at the Decatur Farmers Market. On Thursday October 20th is a free self-defense class at the Beacon Hill Center. Garden Jams is going on Friday night at the Oakhurst Community Garden Project. Turn DecatuRED is doing a citywide fundraiser on Saturday. The taste Of Atlanta is at Spring and 5th. There is a free screening of FLOW on Friday night at Emory University. The Atlanta Indie Market and the festival on Ponce continue on. And finally the Little 5 Points Halloween parade and festival are this weekend.

What else is going on this week/weekend?  Anyone want to share?

Local races this weekend include the Run Like Hell 5K & Run Like Heck 1K for Kids at Oakland Cemetery. You can bet there will be a Halloween theme for races for the next week and a half. In Atlanta is the Road Race for Education 5K and in Piedmont Park is the 2011 Kids' Wheel & Run. On Sunday is the AKF/Partnerships in Action 5K & 1K & Kids Run in Centennial Olympic Park.  For something longer or different are the Athens GA Half Marathon in Athens and the 2nd Annual Georgia State Championship Trail Running Race in Lawrenceville.

This Wednesday you will be running route 6.  It's the elephant run as named by Gail.  There are the challenging hills of Delano, the grind up Rogers, and of course climbing up McClendon.  By the way, if it is getting too dark for this route to be run, let me know and I will shelve it for the winter. Last year a comment was made that the path/sidewalk along East Lake was too dark to see. And of course since daylight is shrinking away, wear your lights and other reflective gear for the run. The link to the route is at the bottom of this e-mail. After the run it's off to Mojo's Pizza for food, drinks and trivia.

Enjoy your run Wednesday night.  Thanks for making the Oakhurst Running Club one of the friendliest running club in Atlanta.
