    I don’t know if I’ll make the New Year’s Day run, but I wanted to recommend a great “running movie” to the group. Maybe you’ll get a chance to rent it this winter. It’s called “Saint Ralph” (2004) and it’s a touching movie about an adolescent who sets his sights on the Boston Marathon. Not for young kids, but it’s a great rental…
    Happy New Year!!

    Sorry can’t make the run—planning on The Spin Cycle’s NYD ride. Hope to see you all again Saturday for another Umstead run. BelkyMD and I made it through a hot, drippy 19.2, and we’re ready for a shorter long run!

    This will be a great run; and we get to sleep in! Great training for Little River. And hey, who says that Terp will know how to guide the lost!?

    Head cold permitting, I wil be there! Happy new Year y’all.
    (That “y’all” was for the benefit of the Northerners who have been running with us).

    Looking to run a nice half-marathon? Let’s do Myrtle Beach together, February 16th. I’ve got the hotel room reserved and have entered. My friend John (yet another John) entered and now cannot do it, so I need a partner! Email me if you have any interest! john.mitterling@ymcatriangle.org. Thanks!

    Great trail run, everyone. Thanks for setting that up, Terp.

    I think Sat is at Umstead, Dana. I just saw that a post just went up.
