– October Friday Tags #rakeuptheleaves
– NP Community Page
– Fall races galore
Wednesday was a solid throw down of a classic, intense, favourite workout; The Bridge Challenge. Starting with Bridge Wars and ending with Bridge Sprints. All in all a fantastic morning on the bridge. Smiles were had, high fives given, boxes jumped, hoisties hoisted and pushups pushed. Good Job team!
This morning we had a solid crew show up despite the sparkles falling from the sky, reminding us what #weatherproof means.
This week we announced that the Fifth edition of NP Winnipeg Scramble will be held Thursday, September 26th. Same winning recipe, teams of three, scavenger hunt, show up for fun or competition or my favourite, both! Insider tip, for an extra clue this year your team needs to bring at least three non-perishable food items for Winnipeg Harvest. #npgivesback
Rake up the leaves! Every Friday for the month of October we will be doing a different leaf tag. Collect all four leaf tags and you receive the tree tag! Open your calendars because we will also be doing a Thanksgiving Pop Up workout Monday, October 14th, a Halloween Costume Workout Wednesday, October 30th and A Spooky Karaoke Social Event, Thursday October 31st. Details to follow!
Have you recently recruited a friend to November Project? Are you a new NP member yourself? Are you training for a race? Have a cool event you want to invite people to? Have an idea for a fun way NP can give back? I invite you to post in on the November Project Winnipeg Facebook Community Page, NP YWG Community. It is a closed group so request to be added or add a friend and an admin will take it from there.
Fall Races! I’ve come to realize there are so many great events going on in this city on a weekly basis, often multiple on the same day. It’s hard to remember when each of them is. Are you racing at all this fall? Are you looking to volunteer at an event? Want to cheer and encourage other racers? Even if it’s not a running event, feel free to share! I’m going to toss a couple upcoming races with their dates on here. Please feel free to post about any races I don’t have listed, let us know what distance you are doing so we can get the #hype going.
– Motionball Sept 15th (come to cheer)
– Terry Fox Run Sept 15th
– Ted’s Run for Literacy Sept 29th
– bRUNch Sept 29th (registration closed, still looking for volunteers)

– Run Sage Creek Oct 13th
