I hate you guys !!!

Every year I'm stuck at the plant doing year end physical inventory and all the while I know you're out there in close proximity to me running some of the best roads in GA.

Have fun and be safe.

I am still 50/50. It is my birthday and the rumor is there may be something planned for me. So as of right now I want to...but am still a maybe.

I would like to start a "Spring Run" as well. NYE is great...but with some warmer pavement the spring is a great time to run.

Steen

I'm 50/50 as well. Possible I'll have to work that morning but if not, I'll be there. Hoping things don't go off the rails at work and I can ride the rails in N GA.

Count me in!
