During the last two months we’ve experienced unfortunate luck due to the weather. It snowed and iced the day before our races. While such weather can present issues with any outdoor running, especially racing, it created some dangerous circumstances at Bob Woodruff.
There are several problem areas. First and foremost is the area directly in front of the playground. What appears to be a water leak of some sort is, according to the Plano Parks Department, an underground water issue resulting from the slope above the path. I take their word for it, though I wonder why the same problem isn’t present in other sloping areas around the park. Regardless, due to budget issues there are no current plans to address the problem. Click to continue »

Howdy Pacers!
It’s me again. Why? ‘Cause we can’t find a replacement. I’m not official, but I thought I’d help provide more articles for the newsletter!
We have now reduced our requirements for president to someone with a pulse. Actually, that’s how I qualified for the position two years ago. Seriously, we are looking for some full-time volunteers. Click to continue »
