Chick-fil-A Race Running Meetup on March 3
This Saturday, March 3, The Second Wind will host a running meetup at Main Street Park in Rolesville at 8 a.m. This is the first of three meetups we’re hosting leading up to the Connect Race on March 24, 2012 as part of the Chick-fil-A Race Series. This meetup is open to anyone that would like to join in, regardless of whether or not you are able to run in the Connect Race on March 24. We simply want anyone that enjoys running to come out and enjoy connecting with other runners and logging a few miles! We’ll have groups for beginner, intermediate and advanced runners and will pair you up accordingly to make sure you have an enjoyable time!
Directions
The Second Wind running meetup will be held at Main Street Park in Rolesville (200 S. Main Street, Rolesville) and will start at 8 a.m. Parking is available in the main parking lot at the Main Street entrance. Additional parking is available on the backside of the park at Sanford Creek Elementary School (note: if you park at the school, you will need to follow the paved trails back over to Main Street Park).
When you arrive, look for members of The Second Wind team (wearing their “Second Wind” t-shirts) and let them know you are there to join in for the running meetup.
