Lets prove to Walter that we are not the slowest running group in the country. Grab your short, shorts and spikes and hope to see you on Wednesday.

Pacers Needed - Run Rabbit Run 100

2014-08-25T11:03:00.001-07:00

Hello All,

Reaching out to see if anyone is interested in doing a bit of pacing for the Run Rabbit Run 100 coming up here in a couple weeks. My brother Drew Pashley could probably use a little help out there. He has a couple lined up already, but can't hurt to see if anyone is feeling fresh.

He is pretty quick, but typically toward the end there is some slow going... haha

Please feel free to drop me a line:
