Looking for a fun run that supports a great organization?  Try the Timber Dash 5k trail run, October 1, 2011.  Proceeds support PATH Crisis Nursery of Wright County.*  It’s the second year of this event.  Gorgeous time of year to run the trails at Lake Maria State Park.  Last year was chilly!  Since I’ll be running Twin Cities Marathon the next day, I won’t be running it, but I’ll be there working the registration table with my daughter.  Hope to see you there!

*Disclaimer:  I’m on the Advisory Committee for PATH Crisis Nursery of Wright County, so this is a self-interested plug for their race!
