Dare To Be Fit Races Success
On Sunday, March 22nd, 2009, the Stanford University Campus featured the 26th Annual 5K Paul Spangler Run (for Runners Fifty and Over) and the Lifelong Fitness 5K Run for all ages...a Palo Alto Grand Prix Race. The weather cooperated with the rain coming through during the night but ending a couple hours before the races. You can go back and review the race course map.
