Keith Griggs brought his daughter, as she is doing a science project based on the Nielson Challenge. They were collecting ages from everybody to use in some max CO2 calculations that are part of the sciene project. Everybody was happy to provide their ages to Keith and his daughter. Our most improved runner for the month was Logan Gregoire, who was a whopping 6 minutes under his handicap. Way to go, Logan! Wear your shirt proudly. We'll do it all again on January 3rd. See you then.
