Running/Walking Events
I posted this on our Fort Wayne WLS Yahoo site and on WLSIndy.com, and thought I would share it with you as well. Some of you might have received this as an Email if I had your email address saved on my MSN account.
I hope it might help you find some events in your area.

As promised, here are few web-sites that I use to find running/walking events.
I will also list a couple web links to events that I am going to do, my hope is that some of you will also want to join me.

OK, here's the deal. The Cupid's Fling at Carmel, IN and the Fanny Freezer in Fort Wayne, IN are on the same day. The Cupid's Fling is at 9:00am and the Fanny Freezer is at 2:00pm.
If no one wants to go to Carmel in the morning to do the Cupid's Fling, I will go by myself to Carmel in the morning and then come back to Fort Wayne to meet all of you at Shoff Park at 1:00pm and I will do the Fanny Freezer with you.
YES, that two 5K's in one day. I'm willing to do this, if you guys are willing to come out join me for this event.
Here is the link to the Fanny Freezer. http://www.fwtc.org/2006/fannyfreezer06reg.pdf
It's only $4.00, and it's only 2 laps around the park. There's no t-shirt and no hoop-La, just a race number tag for you to wear so they will know who you are when you finish the race.
The Huntington Baptist event is FREE, and a few of us did this on last year and we had a lot of fun.
Let me repeat, IT IS FREE.
And if you register early, you will get a FREE t-shirt.
OK, here all the info. Do with it what you will.
If you have any questions just contact me, and I will help you out with anything that I can.
I hope this inspires everyone to get involved.
Thanks for your time,
Butch Piercy
