WINTER 'OFF SEASON' WEEKEND SCHEDULE

Life Time Fitness All Club Group Runs
2009 Winter Season

WHO: All Are Welcome!!

HOW TO GET THERE: Directions to the locale are listed at the bottom of the posting.

WHAT: "All Club Group Runs" are designed to bring our Minnesota Teams together, our nearly 20 groups in the metro area, for a larger group run. Throughout the winter, these runs carry us through a time that for many of us, is known as the "off season" and allows us to keep our "base in place" as we culminate to the Spring Long Distance Training and Marathon Class Kick-offs.

WHERE: All runs meet at, and begin from, The Lake Calhoun Executive Center, which is located "kitty-corner" from the Calhoun Beach Club and across from the Caribou Coffee shop. It is the 4-story business building with the big parking lot and a "sail boat" figure on the roof:-)
