West Philly Runners: WPR e-jawn: October 4th

Some Words from the Management

This week is technically our second official fall run, though you wouldn't know it from the weather. I'm torn between behind happy about the warm weather and being FURIOUS about the warm weather. Either way, we know we'll be pining for these warmer evenings when winter comes through in a few months, so I say we enjoy it while we can.

Meanwhile, so many of you are in full training mode or slaying races on the weekends. You are all rock stars.

This week's runs at headed to Local 44 Bottle Shop!
