SATURDAY PRACTICE 8:45 40 ACRES - 119TH - 1 BLOCK EAST OF LAGRANGE
It’s time for the TTT Spring Bar Crawl, which will take place Friday May 16. Thanks for voting, it’s good to see we’ll have 10 or more people out there for this event. Everyone is welcome whether you are new or old to TTT, or if you are thinking of coming out to run with us but haven’t done so yet. This will take place on the south loop, which includes Buffalo Wild Wings, Rock Bottom, Houlihans, and Harrison’s. Park at BWW (NW corner of LaGrange and 159th St.) and meet the group inside in the bar area. Note that this is a bar crawl, so those looking for speed work or mileage will have to wait until Saturday’s practice. But that gives everyone else a chance to come out as we migrate from bar to bar at warm-up pace. Here’s the schedule for those who may join part way into it or meet up after 10 at Harrison’s:
7:30 – 8:30: Gather at Buffalo Wild Wings maybe grab some food
8:30 – 9:15: Rock Bottom
9:15 – 10:00: Houlihans
10:00 - ???: Harrison’s
Note that finishing at Harrison’s allows us to be close to vehicles for leaving. We’ve also mapped out good spots for crossing intersections. Also, guys, I don’t want to see any short running shorts/shirts in the bars, and neither do the other patrons. I’d recommend cargo shorts or running pants (use your best judgement). Furthermore, don’t be scared to be out on a Friday night with practice on Saturday morning. I’ve pleaded with the Skullmaster to start practice later, and I believe he’s been generous enough to move it to 8:45. If you have any questions I haven’t covered here, or are just plain excited about this event, feel free to reply to this post.

Carl,
Thanks for organizing this event. I'm excited about setting my second PR in less than two weeks.
I noticed there were no fashion tips for the ladies. Does this mean that our women runners are assumed to be better dressers than us guys?
Thanks,
Steve
Damn...can't make this one, we've got guests in from out of town. I'll be drinking the beer, though, and I'll think about you guys!

Just because that I'm not running with the group at this time, I can still come up with one of my favorite excuses for not making an outing................for the last time. How many times have I said I can't make it because I have to either pick-up, drop-off, or go visit my kids at college. No more. My son Alex graduates from Bradley this Saturday. Just a little non-running update for the old timers.

As everyone gathers at Buffalo Wild Wings between 7:30 and 8:30 to start, meet in the back bar area. We'll have a couple of the large tables for the group.
