++++++++++

This week's Thursday night run will be at Lair 'o the Bear (T=2-3,
P=3, N=2) in Kittridge. The main group will start at 6:15pm; the early
group usually meets at 5:30pm. We will have a potluck picnic after the
run, starting at about 7:30pm.

The run is an out-and-back. If you show up late, Just run out as far
as you can (want) to be back for the picnic at 7:30. The faster group
will run to the second junction with the Meadow View Loop, go left, up
the hill, loop back to the Bear Creek trail, then go right back to
Lair. See the following link for a map.
http://www.denvergov.org/admin/template3/forms/PR_Corwina.pdf

We will use a voluntary neutral start, with everyone staying together
until the castle (it'll be obvious).

Everyone is invited to the potluck, even if you can't bring anything.
There is always plenty of extra food. What to bring: fruit, pasta
salads, appetizers, sodas, wine, beer, desserts. Be creative. I will
bring an ice chest to keep things cool while we run. Connie will
supply plates, forks, cups, napkins, etc.

Tentative schedule:
6/2: Ken Caryl, Manor House
6/9: North Table Mtn
6/14 (Tue): Green Mtn Time Trial
6/16: Lookout
6/23: Deer Creek, picnic

Tue morning runs continue at South Table Mtn (T=3, P=2, N=4) on
Tuesday mornings, 5:15am. Please see the message posted on Mondays, or
contact Leigh for more info: LSingleton@....

Wed mornings, run stairs at Red Rocks on Wed mornings. This is a
"show-and-go" workout, meaning that just start whenever you show up.
People have been starting anywhere from 5:30-6:30am. See the Tuesday
message for more info.

Wed mornings, every other week, join Derek Griffith for a long run
near Ken Caryl. He starts at his house, 28 Tecoma Circle, at 6:30am,
and runs for up to 2 hours, 12-15 miles. Contact Derek for more
information, derek@...

Volunteers are needed for several upcoming races. Races don't happen
without volunteer support.

6/12, the inaugural Rocky Mountain ½ marathon and Luna Women's 8k run,
at the Pepsi Center in Denver. I am coordinating volunteers with
Potts. We need lots of people for aid stations, traffic control,
finish line, packet pick-up, and other duties. Youth/civic groups are
especially welcome. This is a big money race that should attract a
large and strong field. Volunteers get a shirt and free lunch. Please
contact me at info@..., 303-870-0487; or contact Potts
at pjones@.... For more info on the race, go to
www.rmrunning.com

6/18, Mt. Evans Ascent. They typically need extra help shuttling
runners down from the top. Go to www.racingunderground.com. Or contact
