Pac Striders Weekend Run, joining the Golden Bay Runners at 9:00 Sunday, Jan 10, at Lake Chabot

Hi Everyone,
We will interrupt our regular rotation for my favorite Sunday run special event, courtesy of the Golden Bay Runners at Lake Chabot. This starts at a picnic area on East Shore trail near the marina and the parking lot.

Join the Golden Bay Runners for our annual January fun run at Lake Chabot Regional Park in Castro Valley. No entry fee, no shirts, no water stops, no bibs, no timing (but an abundance of good times), and plenty of challenge. Run all or part of the famous Trail Challenge Half Marathon course - you can choose the route and distance if ours doesn't appeal to you. Lake Chabot offers a wide variety of choices. Expect cold, mud, possible rain, a steep hill or two and some of the finest downhill views in the East Bay. And all this is followed by our epic potluck breakfast, designed to drive winter away. Just bring a dish or drinks to share and you're in! We meet near the boathouse on the Lake Chabot marina - look for a group of runners (and walkers) ready to defy the elements or follow the aroma of hot chocolate. We start precisely at 9 a.m. After all, we are in a hurry to get to the breakfast. Directions: Take the 150th exit from 580, head East up Fairmont Drive and over and down the hill. Lake Chabot lies at the bottom of that hill near where Lake Chabot Road intersects Fairmont Drive. For more information, call Michael Raffee (408) 209-8680 or Will and Julie Uher (510) 278-0451


Have a good Weekend,
Mike
