Happy New Year!

I know it's been a while since this blog has been updated... I've been pretty lax about it this past year, and I apologize for that. I'll be updating this more regularly in 2010, at least that's one of my resolutions. :-)

2010 is shaping up to look much like the end of 2009. Schedule of classes for Q1 2010 is as follows:

• Monday 5:45pm: Jen
• Tuesday 11:45am: Bob
• Wednesday 5:45pm: Kristin
• Thursday 11:45am: Jen

Be warned, folks - Kristin's 1 hour class is still to come! More details as I get 'em!

Hope you all had a great last couple weeks of 2009, and that 2010 shapes up to be a good year! Now to burn off all the holiday excess!!

Spinning: New instructor schedule

Hi folks,

Just a quick schedule update! Now that the warm weather is here, outdoor activities are calling a few of your instructors away for sunnier venues... Kristin will be back at softball in the evenings, and George will be golfing on Thursdays.

The schedule for May through June:

• 6:30am - Paul (sleepyheads, no need to change your routines)
• 11:45am - Bob
• 5:45pm - Me (Jen)

The schedule may change as work and other activities get in the way, of course.

Energy Bars and Salmonella - Recall List

The guys at the Team Cross Runs blog have done their homework regarding the Salmonella outbreak and its relation to some popular energy bars. If you eat any of these energy bars on a regular (or even infrequent) basis, you may want to check out the recall list: PowerBar is safe, Clif Bars Recalled

(Please note that Clif Bars aren't the only ones affected, and the recall is voluntary)
