Hello Delco RRC - Want to write the weekly email or ...?

Have something interesting to add to the email?  Forward it to me at info@delcorrc.com.  Thanks to those that always give me support.
 
No quote this week.  This will be the last email that I will put together for awhile.  If you have any interest in taking over, contact me at info@delcorrc.com and I'll give you the information you need.  It has been fun but I need a break.  You can also contact Diane Lista at the same email address.
 
Also looking for a couple of other positions to be filled.  The club is looking for someone to maintain and update the club website and to check the club email on a frequent basis and forward emails to who needs them and respond to inquiries.
 
I'll see you on the roads.

Swarthmore Fun Run - Every Wednesday - Our Most Attended Fun Run!
 
31 runners and walkers joined up at the Swarthmore Fun Run last night. 14 people went to Swarthmore Pizza after the run to enjoy good food, drink and friends.  Remember, you don't have to run to join us for dinner.  Come on out and join in the fun.  All abilities are welcome both to the run/walk and to eat.

Philly Marathon Bib

 

If you would like to run the Philly Marathon, I know where you can get a bib.  Chuck Dower was planning on running the marathon but like has happened to many of us, an injury has upset his plans.  He has a bib that he no longer has any use for.  If you are interested, reach out to Chuck at acdower@comcast.net.
