Coed Poker Run with SB2SB

PB guys and gals, help PB support Sports Bras to Sports Bars, a local women's running group in their efforts to raise money for some good causes this summer including the Alzheimers Association, Leukemia and Lymphoma and MS societies just to name a few. SB2SB is hosting six summer co-ed poker runs this summer!

Grab your super capes and super tights for May's fundraiser on Monday, May 23rd. Proceeds from this coed poker run go to the Alzheimer's Association and the theme is superheroes.

The run is less then 4 miles. Over the course of the run, you will retrieve 5 poker cards. Prizes are awarded for both guys and gals with the fastest times, best costumes and best poker hands. Registration is $10.00 and is from 6-6:45 pm on the patio at the Brooksider Bar & Grill.

SB2SB is a local women's running and walking group that meets on Monday nights for some exercises and a little carbohydrate/fluid replacement. Click here more information about this group.

May 14th Long Run Details

A few of us have borrowed the facilities at McD this season for just that purpose, perhaps to the detriment of the diners!

We are meeting at the Brookside tennis courts at 6:30 a.m. this Saturday and will be set up for a total of 14m. Join us at Sharps for breakfast after the run. Sharps is on the NE corner of 63rd and Brookside across from the parking lot of the tennis courts.

Lean Muscle Mass Recheck

The end of the Winter/Spring season is fast approaching and its time to squeeze some fat! For those of you who received a fitness assessment back in January, it is time to recalculate your lean muscle mass and compare the before and after. A few spots may be available for those wanting a first time base line check. Please inquire.

Coach Amy will be available for re-checks at Metro Walk and Run on Friday, May 20th. Appointments are available in 10 min. increments starting at 7:00 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. Contact us with your preferred time.

Ladies should wear a sports bra.
