SARL: MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR! Start off the new year right - sign up now for 2015 races!! APOLOGIES for the website – luckily we have some great members. Tanner was able to fix the home page load problem,. And … drum roil … Carlee Price has volunteered to take over webmaster duties. She has previous experience and has already produced a new, draft website. If you have any suggestions, get them into us quickly. We will try to go live with the new site by January at the latest. Red Rudolph Run had over 300 people participating. Thanks to Daniela De La Cerda who helped pull together all the SARL support. It wasn’t too hard, right Daniela?! Resolution Run is 3 Jan at East Concho Volunteer Fire Department. Our 11th year supporting the station! It is always a superbly executed run with a lot of good food afterwards...money raised goes to the ECVFD and has helped buy a few trucks as well as other much needed upgrades to the station. Register early so Kay can plan the food and drinks as well as you get a chance for a T-shirt! See sanangeloroadlizards.org or getmeregistered/VFDResolutionRun to sign up online. See ya out there for an easy 13 miles! The Shannon Trail Series races will start on 17 Jan starting with 5K (short course) or 10K (long course) race (your choice) at Middle Concho Park (other races are 31 January and 21 February). Rain, Shine, Snow, Hail, Cold, Warm—we will run them regardless. One year I remember “swimming: down a trail in the State Park about 2 miles from the end of the race,. What a blast. Trail runners are weird, I guess. By the way, you cannot beat the price -- $40 NOW (by January 16th) will get you into all 3 races!! Otherwise, it is $20 each. And, registering for all 3 races also gets you a cool, unique trail series T-shirt. See roadlizards.org or getmeregistered/SARLTrailSeries I am also working with Jeff Lisson for some special awards if you also sign up for the Series plus Crazy Desert Trail Race (Mar 14). More to follow, but you have to do all 4 races, so you might as well as sign up now for the entire trail series!. Annual club meeting has been pushed until mid-Jan – TENTATIVELY, we are planning for Tuesday, January 20th – location to be determined….but it will most likely serve food and refreshments. Please save the date for that evening and I will get you more information as we get the details ironed out. We are still recruiting folks for a group to Bandera Trail Run on 10 Jan. Leave 9 Jan about 2PM, eat/camp, run, return. They have a 25K, 50K, and 100K – they are all great races. We already have a group of beginners and experienced folks going, so come on out and join us! Group runs – Tue nite at 6:30 (Middle Concho) and Fri nite (Farmers Market) at 5:30 almost every week. Which Cliff’s postings on Face book – he’ll post the info there, or you can let us add you to our “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly” group to keep you up-to-date on all our little group runs. Yes, WE ALWAYS NEED VOLUNTEERS for the Board and for the races. Please give some back to the club and volunteer. If you are interested in working on the Board, let us know—it is only a few hours a week at the most. We will also be asking for race volunteer help during the year. So, consider taking a race day off and help us out when the call comes. Thanks! I am providing the SARL 2015 calendar (as it currently stands) below. Note, we are relying on the numerous other volunteer organizations for the typical 5K races and SARL is handling the more difficult unique races. If you would like to direct a SARL race, either one on the list, or a new one, please let me know and I can help you. HIGHLIGHTS for 2015: Trail running in the early year, Texas 8K State Championship 8K Run in the Sun in June, the Tri series in July/Aug, a possible local co-hosted 5K championship with RWB in September, followed by trail and masochist runs. 18 Races total as of right now. Got an interesting quote from our newest SARL member, Carlee: “We run as if to meet the moon…” from Robert Frost’s “Going for Water” [beautiful poem…the line implies: with the right attitude, even the impossible seems possible] Merry Christmas and Happy New Year …. and sign up for the races now!!!
