There were lots of new runners this month, as many people were implementing their New Year's resolutions. This month's most improved runner was Eli Ricca, who was 3:24 under his handicap. Eli received a Nielson Challenge shirt, donated by EON Studios. He'll also be getting a call to appear on the Tonight Show, but he has to run to their studio. We'll see everybody again in February, same time, same channel. Volunteers Phil Foster Al Grimme Pat Lockhart Bill Gallegos Dave Sorenson Susan Davis Bob Royse EON Studios (shirt donation)
