running over xmas holiday ?

If anyone is running between Christmas to new year and want some company please put a message on the board suggesting a time and meeting place. It might just be the incentive some of us need to go out. The next club run is Monday 4th Jan 2010. Doesn't it sound a long time away. Have a great Christmas!! Bria...

Is there any handicapping system to level it up or can I only dream of...
