Greetings Flyers!
Another weekend has come to an end, and it was a great one of running!
A small, but diligent group of Flyers braved the rain, thunder, and lightning for a run dark and early on Saturday morning. I was not one of them. Kudos to those who not only got out of bed, but ran in some less than ideal conditions. As always, the group went on to Paris Croissant for chatter and food.
Sunday morning was a much friendlier day for running. It was a beautiful, but windy day for the Cancer Kids Marathon near Apgujeong in Seoul. A large group of Flyers were ready to go! The club took the top spot in the ladies 10Km, as well as 8th in the men's 10Km. Congratulations Geoff! A big congratulations to Christina on completing her first full marathon, and to Anthony and many others who competed in their first races. Great job everyone! Thank you to Young for bringing snacks and drinks for the group and to Dave for sharing some of his soon-to-be award winning home-brewed beer!
The Seoul Flyers Beach Trip is July 2-3, and sign-ups are happening now! Please register and pay by May 9th at 6pm to join in the fun! Details are available on the Facebook event page (see below). This is sure to be a weekend of running and fun at the beach- hurry up and sign up before it's too late!
This Tuesday after the track workout will be an unofficial Seoul Flyers fish and chip dinner. In other words, a group is planning to go to the Wolfhound for 2 for 1 fish and chips- so come on out! If you can't make it to the track, but would like to come eat please contact Brad Anderson.
Tuesday May 3, 6pm
Join us this Tuesday at 6pm for a track workout. If you're looking to increase your speed, this is the way! Join us at Hangang Middle School (about halfway between Banpo Bridge and Noksapyeong Station). Check out the map
If you are an official member but have not received a Seoul Flyers shirt yet, come out before or after our Saturday runs to pick up your shirt. If you can't make it on Saturday mornings, please contact Sun to arrange pickup in the Ichon or Jamsil areas (suntbae@hotmail.com 010-4589-0825).
Races in May are filling up! If you'd like to participate in upcoming races, be sure to sign up soon. Please remember to wire money to the race account posted on the event pages and then email sfraces@gmail.com. It is much easier to keep track of all entries when they are received by email, and not posted on the Facebook event pages.
