October 10 Mile Race
Think we will use Cottonwood Park in Parker.
- Need to follow their rules; want us to park at an abandoned shopping area nearby (where Funugyz used to be) and have only race setup at the park lot.
- $250 deposit, but no other fee.
- They want us to flag a tough blind corner near a bridge (if we use it).
- Need a special use permit from Parker, but otherwise no fee.
Father’s Day Mile
not quite dead…. Still want to try to make it work with Wash Park as the location (diagonal and run around south end is roughly 1M). Idea is doing it small this time to see how it goes; few or no prizes, same Friday night. David will talk to Janet about a permit.
Marathon Training Series
Brian and Steph doing the next one on 10April (same day at Platte ½)
- How did first race go? – good turnout. Sonja at RR Lakewood gave us 8 raffle prizes; the volunteers took bib numbers during the race and drew names, so people got prizes at the finish.
- Registration – 62 people, 58 finishers. Roughly ½ did the 10
- Volunteers ( 2 water stations 3, 5, 7, 10, 13, 15, 17)
- Course easy to mark, manage.
- Mentioned in RMRR Facebook page, nice coverage in the Post on Friday
Trophy Series Planning
Need a 2M course to replace Bible Park for the July race. Options – Expo Park in Aurora, Clement Park, maybe Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield. Who is looking at it?
Membership
lots of student memberships at last race. Decided to treat them as members, send renewals when the time comes.
Social Activities / Marketing / Other Runs
