So for over a year I have been talking about how it would be nice to have some fun runs or "beer runs" in the area. A little over a month ago my friend tells me we should plan one. So that was where it started. We threw around several locations. The first place I contacted emailed me back once and then I never heard from them again. Luckily the second place (Tap House Grille) got right back to me. We set up a Facebook event and worked on telling people in our local running group. S created the route while I worked out details with Tap House. Less than a week before the event we had a mix up on their specials. Luckily that all worked out. Day of the event it was about 40 degrees and raining. I started getting nervous that no one would show. I worked hard to plan this and was hoping for a decent turn out so we could plan more.
Well people showed and ran in he rain! Yay! I of course was sore from my 9 mile run Saturday and was in no state to run. I gave out maps and stayed behind with keys. S lead the group on the run. They came back and we all ordered beers and food. Tap House was so kind and gracious. They even supplied our table with chips and salsa, quesadillas, and cheese curds. I would host another run here anytime.
So everything actually turned out great despite the weather and a few hiccups along the way. I figure that's normal for me. I am not in the works of planning beer run #2 with the help of S.
It was a great event! Looking forward to the next one!
