Moving On - Week 7

Ok Gang, we are on the downhill side of the run series - week 7 of 12 runs is in the books. See the link to the right "2021 Summer Swing Results" to see how you did, and if it applies, your progress. We were fortunate to have temps in the 80's and humidity in the 50's. Not bad for the end of June. In the next 5 weeks we will squeeze in our watermelon and pizza runs. I'm looking forward to that! As you veterans know, your race fees cover the cost, so no additional charge to runners. Also, we will have a run on the Tuesday following July 4th (next week), and I hope you will be able to join us. Meanwhile, stay hydrated and stay safe. Doug

Halfway Through

That's it, run 6 is in the books and we are halfway through the 12 run series. We had 27 show up tonight and had very good weather conditions, especially for June. Check out the results in the link to the right "2021 Summer Swing Results". Hope to see you next week! Doug

Run 5 Complete

We were fortunate to have low humidity tonight - how about 35%? Not bad for a June day in East Alabama! We even had a light breeze to go with it. Good turnout - good run times - good company - good food - I'll take that combination and run with it every time. See the 2021 Results link in the right margin to see your progress in the 12 run series. Good to have new folks join us - Ben, Carolyn, Precious, Ava, and Alaina. Come back again. Look forward to seeing everyone next week. Bring a friend! Doug

Week 4 Run - Avoided the Rain!

It looked pretty bad about 4:30 pm - thunder crashing, sheets of rain, gusts of wind.....but by 6pm things had calmed down and it was a great evening for a run. Our Rule of Thumb is that the run will be held UNLESS there is lightning in the immediate area at 6pm. Keep that in mind for future runs...and remember that you can always give me a call at 334-524-5021 for updates. Results can be found in the link to the right ("2021 Summer Swing Results"). Check them out. Hope to see you next week! Doug

What about the rain?

I will be there and we will try to get our run in. If there is lightning nearby at 6pm, the run is "officially" cancelled, and each runner is on their own. Doug 6/8/21 4:20pm

Week 3 Complete

Good to see everyone tonight! Much thanks to Raley and April for your help at the finish line. It's so nice to be getting back to normal, enjoying friends and meeting other runners. If you have not had a chance to yet, be sure to join the free Summer Swing Concert across the street, after our run. Next week is Kidd Blue, and they put on a great show. Results for this week are in the link to the right - "2021 Summer Swing Results". Hope to see you next week - Doug
