    Thank you to all who joined Fleet Feet for the first Fleet Feet Social Run/Walk at the Social on East Avenue.

    Donna, the owner and the Social Staff, welcomed 50 plus runners and walkers into their bar/restaurant after a 3, 4 or 5 mile romp around the city. The Social served us great eats from quesadillas to fried polenta and delectable cheeses. The next one is Thursday, April 9th at 6PM at the Social. All Welcome, whether you walk or run - Join US. Many thanks to the Social for hosting us. See you in a month and every second Thursday of every month.
