Melanie Weston is the winner of our facebook “Guess the Number of Runners” competition. Some were closer on the 5k, and others on the 1/2 mile jog, but Melanie was really close on both. Her total of 900 was just 37 off our final count of 863. Congrats! We hope you like your prize.

The race was fantastic!
5k Reindeer Fun Run awards are now online!

The rain sprinkeld and threatened, but held back once the race began. A record turn-out and a new course record were among the rewards.

The night before running…

David — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 23:31:49 +0000

Twas the night before running and all through the city, we looked at the weather and saw it was rainy;

The antlers were tucked in the race bags with care, in hopes that the runners soon would be there;

The kids Egg Nog Jogging and all the 5k, with visions of awards and prizes that day;

We the runners, the walkers, and even the pets, can’t wait for tomorrow even if we get wet!

Help us out with Packet Pick-up

Everyone who can pick up their packet tonight will greatly help us keep things on-time tomorrow. It looks like rain, but spirits are sunny because we have had more registrations than we ever hoped for! At last count – that was over 750 pre-registrants, so helping us with early packet-pick up tonight or tomorrow morning is greatly appreciated!

Bring your reindeer gear and rain gear – we’ll see you there
