Lord Hill Saturday Practice!

Did you notice something unique about this photo? Its still "LIGHT" out! It was awesome to see all of you in natural light! What a gorgeous team we are! Yet most stunning is on one of the rainiest days I've ever seen - - the clouds parted and we once again had a "DRY" practice! Since Thursday January 5th we have not had one single rainy practice! Crossing my fingers for the coming Thursday night! A BIG shout out to Michelle Heinemann, Hope Soley, and Rod MacLean as all three ran three times around the lake and did three sections of driveway training! What a GREAT trio! We were also DELIGHTED to have Donna Vande Kieft back, her husband Bill is on the mend. And Jeannie McLam and Lori Navarro kick up their heels and had an awesome workout too!

As most of you know - - we will be in Portland for Thursday and Saturday practice! Our renter moved out so we need to get the new one in. :-( Know we will be there in spirit! Jeannie McLam has happily stepped up and will coordinate Thursday practice. It will be at our house, and once again it will be long run/walk and some hills. (Thinking Shelby/Beverly and 18 minutes of hills) Fasties keep running until most of the group gets back for driveway hill training. The joys of being young and in shape! Jeannie has the key, so the house and restroom will be available. If people think of it please take a photo or two of Thursday and Saturday practice! You know how I love to brag about you all! And PLEASE don't let Dooley the cat out!!! :-)

Saturdays practice will be at Lords Hill in Snohomish and Pat Hamburg has graciously volunteered to lead that one. You will all meet at 9:30 a.m. in the parking lot. The directions follow below:

Driving Directions - Main Parking Lot
Take the Snohomish-Wenatchee exit off of I-5 onto US2 in Everett to second (east) Snohomish exit off US2; turn right onto 2nd Ave; turn left onto Lincoln Ave S which becomes the Old Snohomish-Monroe Hwy; turn right onto 127th Ave SE; drive south approximately 2-1/4 miles; turn left onto 150th St SE and proceed to the park entrance on the left.

It would be appreciated if you could let Pat know if you plan to come to practice, either through Facebook or the email you picked up the blog from.

The next blog after I return from Portland will have the acknowledgements of reaching the donation commitments!

Have a beautiful week!

Find Joy! GO BEADS!!!

Jen :-)
