Registration is NOW OPEN at northshoretimingonline.com for Miles 4 Markie and Wayne’s Walk!Sunday, April 7, 2013 | Race starts at 10:00am; walk at 10:30am

Last year’s first annual Miles 4 Markie was an enormous success! With your help I was able to raise over $6,000 for the Pediatric Oncology and Hematology Department and I am asking for your help again!

This year the event is growing from a 5k to a 4-mile multi-terrain run! We are currently undergoing certification from the USATF and also incorpo-rating a 2-mile Wayne’s Walk so everyone in the family can participate!

Trophies and medals will be awarded to those who finish top in their categories, and commemorative buttons will be given to the walk participants!

All who register on or before Friday, March 22 will receive a T-shirt regardless of which event you choose!

I hope to see you all there! Happy Running!

Where in the World is Wicked?Napa Valley, Cali!

Run, Drink, Enjoy:

Melissa Jaynes (aka MJ) just ran the

Napa Marathon. It started in

Calistoga, CA and ran out to Napa

where it finished. The road was lined

with wineries (not spectators). Here

she is waving as she passes mile

18.5 with the Robert Sinskey Winery

behind her (where husband Justin and

mom-in law were having mimosas).
