Weekly Recap (May 26th - June 1st, 2012)

Your summary of the past week’s events! 

The weekend is upon us! Here is your recap everything FrontRunners from the past week.

This last week we partied in the Castro area, continued interval training with the San Francisco Track & Field Club, enjoyed the Golden Gate Bridge festivities, had a Pride Run meeting, and concluded our month-long push to get everyone set up on the new sffr.org site… all in addition to our usual runs!

Registration-O-Rama Party and Bar Night: on Friday, over 30 members and friends joined up in the Castro for an evening party followed by a bar night at the Lookout.

We first enjoyed food, fun, and jell-o shots at Brian and Bryron’s place and then were treated to a private section and free entry at the Lookout. A special thanks to everyone who came and to the Lookout, for welcoming us!

SF Track and Field Club Interval Training: The SF Track & Field Club met for their usual workout on Sunday. Exercises included stretching, sprints, and other dynamic workouts. For information on the club and the meets, contact Bob at callori@sbcglobal.net.

Golden Gate Bridge 75th Anniversary: The weather gods smiled on San Francisco on Sunday, allowing us all to celebrate the 75th birthday of the Golden Gate Bridge. Those of us who braved crowds, or just had a high enough vantage point, we treated to an amazing fireworks show, which you can view some of here (link).

Pride Meeting: On Thursday we met to discuss aspects and planning of the 2012 Pride Run, which is less than a month away now. The club will definitely need volunteers so head over to our Dibs section to help out (link).

May Registration-O-Rama: We concluded our month-long push to get members registered at the new site. This means no more reminders every week (yay!). If you missed out on the month’s worth of reminders and instructions and still have yet to register, have no fear. Contact us for any help: vp@sffr.org

June Movie Night Reminder: June movie night is tonight! For full info on the event, head here (link).

Women’s Outreach Event Reminder - June Women’s Run: As part of our Women’s Outreach efforts, we will be hosting a Women’s run on Saturday, June 2nd, during our regular runs. A run leader will be chosen the morning of and both women and men are welcome to participate. Full info here (link).

2012 Pride Run Member Sponsor Party Reminder: On Saturday, June 2nd, we will be throwing a party to raise money for the 2012 Pride Run beneficiary, Out in the Bay. Bob and Chris have graciously offered their home for the party, and you can expect good food, drinks, and company, as well as some other extra treats. Full info here (link).

Member Card Reminder: If you have renewed or signed up for FrontRunners for 2012, you can pick up your card at any Saturday after the runs. Allow for 2 weeks between registering and having your card printed. You can also email vp@sffr.org for a replacement.

As always, we welcome submissions for events, photos, news articles, and columns.

That covers it for this last week.

Enjoy your weekend and see you at the runs!
