9/18/12 Tuesday Track Practice has been Cancelled

Hello NOVA Runners,

Due to the severe weather threat throughout the DC area that is supposed to last well into the evening, Tuesday Track has been CANCELLED this week.  We stuck it out through some rough heat this summer, but tornadoes and thunderstorms are not to be fooled with.  Please hit the treadmill instead of running outdoors and take care when driving if caught in a severe thunderstorm.

See you next week,
Justin, Amanda and Coach Jerry
