A Sleigh Ride Of A Run

Dec 20 2010 Route

Well, this is it! The run before Christmas. It's gonna be a sleigh ride of a run.

Twas the Monday before Christmas, when all through adidas
runners one by one were gathering without a fuss.
The strings were tied by runners with care,
in hopes that Warren or Raymond soon would be there.

The runners came and "sign up" we said,
checking out the route and keeping it in their heads.
As runners leave and some would stay,
it was a matter of time before they're on their way.

As the runners run happy and glee,
hoping the weather is fair and something to see.
The runners would run up and down,
throughout the east side of the city and parts of Downtown.

Some would run solo, some in a group,
running all together hoping not to feel poop.
Some would run fast and some would go,
as long as they finish, they all deserve a medal of GOLD.

Runners would be back stretching and sweaty,
in hopes that the refreshments are out and ready.
With water or Gatorade in hand,
the runners are feeling good about the route they ran.

As they munch on fruits and grain,
Warren and Raymond are glad none of them are in pain.
The runners are happy as they would,
being at adidas every Monday they really should.

Some of the runners stand and talk,
others are gathering their stuff and getting ready for their walk.
With the runners leaving in sight,
Warren and Raymond wishes them a Merry Christmas and to all a good night.
