Pac Striders Feb. 24 - Couples Relay, 9am start

This Sunday we're going to the 30th Annual Couples Relay race at Lake Merritt in Oakland! This is an annual tradition for us, and we're paired up and ready to go, rain or shine!  There are still some spots left, so don't be shy, ask a friend or partner and sign up at http://www.lmjs.org!

If you don't feel like hooking up at the race, we've designated Inspiration Point in Berkeley as the alternate run. Wherever you go, don't forget your rain gear!
