The temperature was minus 2 degrees. The course was snowy and icy, especially the last 1/2 mile. 20 runners still came out to brave the cold temps. For the first time in many years, nobody was under their handicap. But Mike Stephens was the least amount over his handicap, so he gets the monthly shirt award. Way to go, Mike. Thanks for coming out, and especially thanks to the volunteers for working a real freeze off.
