From Coach Toby…..
Great job EVERYONE on our Sunset neighborhood hill repeats last week.
🎃 Now it’s time to get ready for Hilloween. Our annual Halloween Wildcard is back! Complete with (less-than) scary hills, Halloween thrills, and oh yes—costume prizes!
Join us this Thursday, (not Tuesday, we’re swapping wildcard and speed this week) Halloween night, as we conquer some of SF’s spookiest streets. Dressing up encouraged. Let’s bring the full Run Club Halloween vibes! 👻
Meet: 6:30pm Thursday, 7th and MLK Jr Dr, Golden Gate Park
Prize Lineup:
- 1st Place: A free entry to The Krampus Cross Country 5K/10K or Naughty Nine Miler (Sun, 12/8)!
- 2nd Place: A bottle of Taft Street wine and a private winter group tasting with Coach Toby and Gianna, Taft Street’s new winemaker.
- 3rd Place: A mystery prize…are you brave enough to claim it?
Check out the course map here, if you dare…
We’re sharing the sidewalks and streets with trick-or-treaters, so let’s keep it festive, fun, and safe for everyone.
Looking ahead…
I want to extend a huge thanks to each of you for showing up and giving your all during this fall’s wildcard workouts. Week after week, we’ve seen fantastic turnout and team camaraderie, and it’s been inspiring for me to see your commitment and growth as runners and athletes.
I design these sessions to help you get stronger, build confidence and endurance, and really push the envelope on what you’re capable of. I hope you’ve realized some of these gains, made some new friends or deepened previous connections, and found some joy in running along the way.
Winter season kicks off Saturday, 11/16. In-between, Run Club will be hosting pop-up runs + socials at Wed. 11/6 @ 6:30PM, Sat. 11/10 @ 10AM, and Wed. 11/13 @ 6:30PM. All are welcome—stay tuned for locations.
