All-City Pasta Feed

Hi everybody!
Mankato and Owatonna
It appears that I have missed a couple of opportunities to highlight some runner accomplishments!  (Since Elizabeth has been injured, I haven't been at the races and I'm missing stuff!)
Congratulations to Chad Couser who won both the Owatonna and the Mankato meets!  If you are new to Cross Country, you may not realize what a big deal it is to win a race the size of these events.  Unlike soccer, volleyball, and football who have two teams play each other and one team wins, in XC there are so many players out there, Mayo will often go years between having an individual who can win a race like Owatonna.  So smile for Chad today as you send him happy thoughts and well wishes for the fantastic season that he is having!
Along the same lines, congratulations to Spencer Moore who took 6th place overall and Kendall Pfrimmer who took 5th place at Owatonna.  Again, these are amazing accomplishments and well-deserved for athletes who are working so hard!

All-City Pasta Feed and Meet
All-City Pasta Feed for the athletes is Monday, October 12 at John Marshall High School.
Here are some details:

Hope to see you all at the All-City meet on Tuesday at Century High School!  This is a wonderful celebration of the runners in Rochester and a fun opportunity for them to see how they all stack up against each other :).  It is a fast meet with only two races:  one for the girls and one for the boys. Following the high school races, the KLM 1-mile race for younger kids is a great time for any siblings to come out and stretch their legs!  Great fun!  

The forecast for Tuesday looks great with a high of 66 degrees but be warned!  Bring a sweatshirt!  It is always beautiful when we get there but gets cold by the time we are finished!

I will be at the All-City whether Elizabeth is running or not, so see you there!  Looking forward to seeing everyone!
