This just keeps getting crazier and crazier!
1. We are running through the streets of Braddock - crazy!
2. There is a woman in town filming a documentary about the community and how it is struggling to survive AND is interested in us coming there and might want to follow us around a bit! HOW CRAZY IS THAT?!?!?
3. Unique after-run feature to be revealed later!
We will do short out and back along the Edgar Thompson Works. It is quite a place to see! I think I have us about 4.5 miles... We might be stopping along the way though to admire some of the unbelievable architecture! Did I say this was going to be CRAZY!?
The mayor's wife Gisele runs a "free store"

so if anyone wants to make a "thank you" gift donation, they can bring their clothing donations OR
a pack of diapers. They are better than gold at the free store. HOWEVER no one should IN ANY WAY feel obligated to donate.
That is the run down on the run! I'm expecting more details about the documentary. I'll pass any important
Info onto you!
See you Sunday!
