Saturday 9/26/2020 and Joe Howell

Hi, Congratulations to everyone who ran the Virtual 5K last week! Great Job! We have 3 weeks until the 5miler, 6 weeks to the 10k and 8 weeks to the half marathon. 

Tomorrow's workout will meet at the Vieja Valley Elementary School at 6:30am!

We will be doing a 4.67mi tempo/threshold run tomorrow, which is below....starting from the tennis courts heading up Las Palmas left on Via Presada, left on Via Tranquila, left on Las Palmas, then re trace your steps taking a right on Lago Dr and a right on Estrella and back to the start and repeat 2x...so...one 2mile loop and 2x the shorter 1.28mi loop for a total of 4.66:)

One more thing on the agenda:

Most of you know Joe Howell, who has been an active member of SBR&R over the years. 

Joe has been serving on the SB County Board of Education for more than 20 years. This is the first year he is on the ballot with an opponent. (Note that he is NOT running for the SB Unified Board; this is the SB COUNTY Board of Education.)

Please visit Joe’s campaign website www.howellforcountyschools.com and go to the “Join Us” page to support Joe with your endorsement, posting one of his yard signs and/or your donation. 

Joe’s name will be near the bottom of your Nov. 3^rd election ballot if you live in his “Trustee Area #6”, which is described on his website.
