Come to Galbraith!!

Submitted by jessdagg on 30 November, 2008 - 23:29

Daniel mentioned to me that he was thinking about cancelling his event this year because he hadn't heard that anyone was thinking about coming. What???!!! So I informed him that we were most definitely looking forward to doing the event, and that I even specifically switched my work days so I could come. So, for any of you who have never run this event, I highly reccommend it. So many people showed up to Mike and Melissa's Fun Run which was 27km, and this event is only 5km more...you can do it!! The trails are awesome, and so is the pool at the community centre after and late lunch/dinner after that. Makes for a great day. Even if you don't have the full day available, just come down for the run. You won't regret it. Did I mention I don't really want to run alone and would love some company? At this rate, I'll be dragging myself behind Bill and Daniel.

Car Pooling from Vancouver to Bellingham

My boss just told me she needed our car.  Jess, can I bum a ride and pay for gas?  If you're looking for a lift, too, I hear Claudia may have room.

To help the club going green, I have offered my van as a transportation vehicle... I can sit up to 7 (including me). i know Ean, Bill and Jess have out their names down, I still have couple more spots. We'll talk about where to meet the day of the race. Cheers, Claudia

Sprinkly Donuts?

Submitted by Ean Jackson on 2 December, 2008 - 13:03.

I'm registered.  Don't cancel!

Is your Mom going to be at the start with a box of those sprinky donuts?  They rate right up there with the cholesteral bombs at the finish of the KneeKnacker!

I'm with Jess re: the Mexican place at the finish.  They don't make salsa like that at Mexican places up here in the frozen north.

Thanks

Thanks Jess for the exceptional review of the Galbraith mtn tour. I am looking forward to seeing you there along with some new and old friends. I'll get to work on updating the rest of the info this week. Anyone have suggestions for the after party food preference. Mexican,burgers and or beer of course. Your Event Host

when we were on our way down to hood to coast, we stopped in bellingham in the same plaza as the REI and the mexican place. I think it's a pub in the corner wasn't bad at all, and they seemed to know lots about their beer!

It's still three weeks to go. We have a handful of runners registered so far to explore the trails of Galbraith and more will likely commit closer to the day.
