XMAS Lights Run Wednesday Dec 13th, 6:00PM |
| Join us at the Rose Garden on Lazy Lane for a a short community run/walk (~4 miles) to view the lights in River Oaks. Dress festively and conspicuously (i.e. wear lights and reflective clothing). For safety, please keep children with you. PARKING NOTE:

John's Looong Run Sun. Dec 17th, 6:30AM |
| It's time for that year end tradition - John's Looong Run! The event begun by John Phillips is hosted once again by Sue Leone & Alan Svoboda
at their home (check your weekly email for the address). The 21-ish mile
course runs around Memorial Park, through River Oaks and Tanglewood
neighborhoods and ends back at Sue and Alan's where all manner of
breakfast food, beverages, and camaraderie awaits. Pool and hot tub
available, so bring your towel! All we ask is for a $10 donation at the
door. The route can be shortened if 20 miles is not on your training schedule. Detailed course info in next week's email. Not running? Consider volunteering to help with the breakfast prep or water stop duty. Reply to this email or contact Alan at svobodeaux007@gmail.com. NEW THIS YEAR: Due to the cancellation of the 30K, which was to take place on the same day, BCRR is partnering with HARRA and the Houston Striders
to provide a FREE supported long run to the Houston running community.
Thus, our course will be open to anyone who wants to run. HARRA and the
Striders will help with course support, but the official start and end
for the public will be at Memorial Park instead of Sue
and Alan's house. Runners can RSVP HERE |
