Once again, Somerville Road Runners announce the 13th (or 14th, 17th, who remembers?) Almost-Annual and Always Magnificent:

SRR Winter Challenge!!

Greetings Winter Warriors! It’s time to show the Abominable Snowman who’s boss! Join your fellow Somerville Road Runners for our annual Winter Challenge fun run!

• When: Sunday, January 8th, 2012 – 11:00 a.m.
• Where: Casey’s - 173 Broadway, East Somerville
• The Run: Your beloved Thursday night 4.06 mile course boasting sprawling urban vistas and precision popsicle-stick timing.

(Please note that this is a fun run, and there will be no official traffic control and minimal course support. Please obey all traffic rules and above all else, run safely.)

• Awards: Best winter get-up (think ski gear, igloo fashion, etc.) Age Groups Other Random Categories
• Entry Fee: FREE!!!

There is no pre-registration required. Race day sign-up will take place from 10:15-10:45AM at Casey’s. We will begin making our way to the start line at 10:50AM.

• Post Race: FREE breakfast at Casey’s!

Chat, sing, dance, watch the NFL play-offs. Bring a change of clothes and plan to stay for a while!

• Clothing Swap: Your trash could be someone else’s treasure! Bring your old race T’s, mildly used shoes, and any other gear that you don’t want, but that might appeal to one of your comrades.
• Volunteers: If you don’t plan to run, but still want to be part of the madness, please volunteer. We will need one or two for assistance at the finish line and two sweepers. Please contact Deb Downs to help out.

Don’t get left out in the cold. We’ll see you there!

Deb & Scott
