SF Runs - Celebrating and Supporting Running in the Bay Area

Hello Runners,Welcome to the return of the SF Runs newsletter! I hope your running in 2017 is going well and congratulations to those who have completed some of the Bay Area's great running events this year, including the Kaiser Half Marathon, SF Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon, and Oakland Running Festival!

I'm sending this newsletter to you from Boston, where I'll be running in the Boston Marathon on Monday. It was a challenging journey to qualify for Boston, but as I have seen many times from runners in SF Runs and other groups, running dreams can come true :-)

Happy running,Leonard[email protected]
