Raabe Victory Party!

Come celebrate Chris Raabe's Grandma's Marathon victory with a little help from your friends...

Friday, 7/31 @ 9:00pm -
Mr. Smiths Georgetown UPSTAIRS

FREE drinks and apps starting at 9pm and ending when the tab runs out. Meet there at 9pm, before the crowds commence.

Chris Raabe was the first American to Win Grandma's in 15 years and in doing so qualified for the 2012 Olympic Marathon Trials with a 2:15:13, roughly a 2 minute PR. In lieu of a ticker tape parade, we are celebrating with drinks and friends in the heart of historic Georgetown.

We will also take this opportunity to say goodbye to Patrick Reaves. Reaves will soon head to Duke to start a new life as a grad student. PR, as many of you know him, has been an intricate part of our training group over the past couple of years and has helped a lot of us, this poster included, improve their times and performances across the board.

This event is open to ALL runners and their friends

Note - The room upstairs opens at 9pm. If the upstairs area is filled for a private function, we will meet in the main bar.

When you said you were putting this invite on LetsRun.com, I thought you were being facetious.

I think you buried the lead.

Would love to attend in honor of both but unfortunately I will be away this weekend.

My congratulations to Raabe and best wishes to PR!
