track workout

this week's track workout will take place on wednesday at 6 pm. come one, come all and bring friends. we have been having a good group of walkers, joggers and sprinters. we'll understand if the high school runners can't make it. i guess track practice is more important than our workouts, but we will miss you.

Hurricane half-marathon registration forms have been mailed. if you didn't get one, go to the city offices. sign-up early, they are limiting it to 500 this year.
