    This little celebration will take place at Prien Lake Park on Saturday, March 28th starting at 8:30AM. According to the park's website, the park loop is .7 of a mile so our course will be that loop 4 times. Every registrant will receive a bib and a medal for completing their run/walk and are welcome to join for matcha and coffee at Stellar Beans.

    The theme is green (and some pink) since you know I'm not that matcha older. So please wear green (and pink)! You know I love every opportunity to dress up. Of course, run or walk the course at your own party pace. Any and everyone are welcomed to register (it's free!) Thanks again for celebrating my birthday with me.

    To clarify, yes- my birthday is March 27th but we're celebrating the next day on the 28th.
