Bon Voyage Gareth!

As some of you may already know, Gareth, a long time member of our Tuesday night running group,will be leaving the Bay Area and moving shortly to Washington, D.C. Gareth, if my memory is correct, has been coming to Burlingame Track nearly every Tuesday night since the fall of 2006. In that time, Gareth has become a very important part of our Tuesday night running community. To the faster runners in the group, he has been a great training partner. To all the other runners whether they like to swim, bike, socialize or drink he has always been there, eager and ready to participate. Gareth will be greatly missed by all of his Tuesday night running friends.

So on that note, why not wish him a typical Tuesday night farewell at Steelhead. A few beers, stories, and pictures (Kiri bring your camera) should make for a fun night. To anyone who is not running that night we usually get to Steelheads around 7:30 PM.So mark this date on your calendar -
