A note from Evan Thomas:
"If you would like to have your total miles run and running events compared to other local runners, please send the information to Evan Thomas  by January 31st, 2012.  We will print the highest totals for men and women in each category and compare these road warriors with past years' leaders.  I hope to get them in the CAPITAL as well as the club newsletter.   
Here's to continued good running in 2012!"
