So... On January 12th there's a running festival at Bridle Trials park in Redmond. They have a 50k relay trail run, amongst other things, but you need three to six people on a team to participate. So far, it's just me and my Manbeast. Anyone interested in joining us to play? If there are six of us it's only about 5.2 miles a piece- and cheap. $60 to register a team, so that'd be $10 a person.

What could be a better start to the year than running in the woods? And when it's dark we get glowsticks!

    It's a relay, so if we get six people it'd only be a little over 5 miles. Totally doable. :D

    I would be very slow. I just started running.

    No worries! Running is running, and we want to do this for the fun of it. :)

    Depending on traffic, about an hour. I live in Kirkland, which is a little north of Redmond, and that's about how long it takes me to get to Tacoma.

    I would actually like to do this, even though I hate running now and my knees hurt. I used to run there all the time. Sadly, I will be out of town. Have fun!

    I didn't even know this was happening! I'd probably be interested but I'll be on a cruise boat in the Carribean :drinker:
