Invasion: Christmas Carol is at Dad’s Garage. There is a 12-21-12 Mayan Fire Ceremony at the Lake Claire Land Trust. Whatelse  is going on this week/weekend?

 

Light and local for the races this weekend. Some local race this weekend starting on Friday, December 21, the End of the World 5K in Marietta. On Saturday, December 22, are the Atlanta Christmas 5K in Virginia Highland and the Charity Benevolent Fund Winter Harvest 5K Run & Mile Run at Agnes Scott College.

Tonight, Wednesday, you will be running route 8, the East Lake Golf Course run.  It's a night run so if you have not already, wear your reflective vests/shirts, bright colors, and flashing lights. The link to the route is at the bottom of this e-mail.  After getting out of the hill on Garland, the route runs downhill until climbing Oakview Rd.  Then the route continues to climb Howard to a quick downhill on College.  Then it's the climb on Wisteria, and a finishing uphill at the shop.  After the run, it's off to Mojo's Pizza for trivia, food, and drinks.

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

Hello ORC,

 

Happy Holidays to all and with it more Holiday events. This Thursday is the Bonfire and Marshmallow Roast in the Square. On Saturday is Breakfast with Santa sponsored by the DBA at the Courtyard Marriott. The Decorate Decatur contest is Sunday. The Bradley Observatory at Agnes Scott is having an open house. Anything else is going on this week/weekend?

 

Here are some local races this weekend. On Saturday, December 15, is the LivingSocial 5K Reindeer Run in Atlanta and the Peachtree Corners Christmas Run 10K & 5K in Peachtree Corners. On Sunday for something different is the Black and Blue Christmas 5K and Obstacle Course in Kennesaw.

 

This Wednesday you will be running the Winter route, route 12. A bulk of it is along DeKalb Av and W Howard on the PATH.  But there are nice rolling hills getting there through MAK and Winnona.  It's dark out there so wear your brightest, most reflective, most light flashing running wear.  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.

Wednesday Night Run 12-5-2012

Hello ORC,

What is going on this weekend, I am looking but I guess it’s the end of the year and things are winding down. I think they are lighting the Holiday tree in Decatur Square on Thursday night. A Solo Christmas Carol is at Agnes Scott. The Nutcracker is playing at Decatur High. What else is going on this week/weekend?

 

A couple of local races this weekend. There is the Strollers in the Front 5K at Piedmont Park and the Inman Frosty 5K in Inman Park. For something longer there is the Race for this City Griffin 5K and Half Marathon in Griffin.

 

This Wednesday you are running through the Winnona neighborhood on Route 1.  It's a winding run through the local neighborhoods. The run goes through Kirkwood, through McKoy Park, around Winnona, through Agnes Scott, and a long finishing straight on Ansley.  This run has a lot of turns but it's all in the neighborhood, you can run your way out.  The link to Route 1 is at the bottom of this e-mail.  After the run it's off to Mojo's Pizza for food, drinks and trivia.

 

Safety note, as it is dark during the run, please wear your reflective vests/shirts/jackets, bright colors, and flashing lights.

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