PDD 5K this Saturday!
Announcing the first ever PDD sponsored athletic event. The PDD Resolution Run/Walk will start and end at Starfire Screen Printing Co.-1131 E 4th St at 9:15AM this Saturday January 5th. Show up at 9 for some coffee and conversation. The run starts at 9:15 and will be self timed.
The run/walk is free but the commemorative T-shirt will be $10 and printed right before your very eyes! Put it on warm for extra enjoyment. No need to sign up but an RSVP in the comments will help with food planning.
I will post route info soon.

could this be the genesis of a Duluth chapter of the Hash House Harriers?
If so, I'm totally game.

When I lived in Cincinnati, I knew Hash House Harriers. Their motto: "Drinkers with a running problem."
I'll probably show up for shits and giggles.

i belonged to an HHH group when I was in the Navy...helluva lot of fun...run from point A to point B, which was almost always a bar or pub. Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, the U.A.E., and Australia...
like i said, I'm totally down with forming a HHH group here...I've done my searchin' and there are five HHH groups in MN, four in the shitties and one in northfield.

BAH! How 'bout a little more heads up next time? I know I may not have much of a life but once in awhile I actually make plans more than two days ahead of time.

Consider this a prequel of sorts to a more organized event next year. We only decided to do the race recently because some folks want to do a 5k every month this year and none were available in January.

You should get in touch with Kris at Northland Runner in order to get some broader publicity. I know a fair number of local runners read that site.

Should we make our own number bibs or will those be provided at the start of the race?

I have a couple of Sharpees if you really want a number otherwise this is a very low-key event.

I just like to have as many souvenirs as possible, hence the question about the bib. I'll be satisifed with the shirt. The route looks good. I think I'll be wearing sandwich baggies over my socks, given the forecast,
