The weather was in the upper 20s with partly sunny skies. There were lots of youngsters this month and a large group of new runners. It's always great to see everybody. This month's most improved runner was Matthew Rombocos, who was 4:11 under his handicap. Way to go, Matthew. You da man! We'll see y'all again in March.
