Sunday Night Group Runs

Just a reminder that our first Sunday night run was this past Sunday, June 9th and they will continue the rest of the summer pending participation from all of you! Our next run is this Sunday the 16th at 7 pm.  We run from the new shelter near the boat landing at Sauk Rapids Muncipal Park. 

Please contact us if you have any questions.  More information can be located below in our previous entries.

Congtatulations and good luck to Samantha Sunstrom at State Track Meet!

Storm Cross Country runner Sam Sunstrom set the school record in the 1600 meter run (roughly one mile) at the 8AA Sectional meet last Friday in Sartell with a time of 5:13.  This enabled her to qualify for the Minnesota State High School track meet at Hamline University this coming weekend.

Sam will be running her event at 10:42 am on Saturday morning.

Good luck at State Sam!

Sunday night group runs to continue during the "summer" of 2013!

I have received feedback from a couple of runners that we are to keep the Sunday night runs this summer so we will do that.  

We meet at 7 pm SHARP at Sauk Rapids Municipal Park at the new shelter every Sunday starting this Sunday June 9.   The Park is located on the river between the Sauk Rapids VFW and the Highway 15 bridge.  

Typical runs are anywhere from 2-5 miles depending on your fitness level.  If you wish to run two, you can run along the river path up stream toward the old paper mill to the entrance to Fisher's Mobile Home Park and turn around. 

If you wish to run three, you run along the river path downstream to the very end at Lion's Park (where the old Sauk Rapids bridge landed), take a right on River Avenue South and turn around at 6th Street South.

If you want to run five, obviously, you can do both legs.

We need participation from the group to keep this organized activity going! ( a minimum of five runners every Sunday).  If we don't get enough participation, we will suspend the group run and let you organize runs on your own.

See you this coming Sunday! :-)
