Welcome to Phil, Susanne, Ross and Janet - our newest members. And welcome back Leslie! Anyone else looking to join a social/running club? Come run with us on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 5:55 at the False Creek Community Center - rain or shine.
We’re justifiably proud of the job we do organizing the First Half Half Marathon. It’s one of the few remaining club-run events of its size. And it’s you - our club members who lead the teams that make it a success. It takes 250 volunteers and over 1500 volunteer hours to pull off the event. We’re deeply grateful for the generous support of our sponsors and for the 180 non-club members who come out and help us! It can’t happen without you.
So click here and sign up for one of the many volunteer positions. http://www.pacificroadrunners.ca/firsthalf/vol.php

Slippery. Cold. January.
Ellie was the first woman, completing 50.5 km in 4:42. Apparently missed a turn at second beach and added a few extra meters to the event. And still first woman. Impressive as always.

Susan - 30km in 2:55
Terry - 30 km
Sukhi - 22 km in 2:22

Goofy Marathon - Jan 10 & 11
He’s been talking about it for over a year and kept his motivation despite an injury that required crutches. Arthur completed the Goofy Challenge - a Half Marathon on Saturday Jan 10 (2:04:44) followed by a full marathon on Sunday Jan 11 (5:16:09) at Walt Disney World, Orlando. Congrats Arthur.
