Spring Has Arrived!
We finally had some great weather last week and it’s just in time for spring races! This week we’ll have entries for the Human Race 5K courtesy of the Gonzaga Journal of International Law and entries to the NFE 2016 Summer Solstice 10k and Kids Run. We’ll also have Fleet Feet back in the house featuring Zoot and Stunt Puppy! If you’re not running this weekend, the Flying Irish also has some great volunteer opportunities so keep reading for more information! See you at Ripples this Thursday at 6:00 PM!
Flying Irish 2016 T-Shirt Design Contest
Last year’s 10-year anniversary shirt was a big success and this year we thought we’d let the members design a new shirt for 2016 so get those creative juices flowing!
The winner gets their name on the shirt, a free shirt, and a pint glass!
Featured Brewery-Deschutes
April brings a new beer sponsor and this month brings Deschutes Brewery! They’ll be bringing great beer, swag, and at the end of the month, they’ll be giving away a 1 gallon hydro flask and dispenser!

Team Out There Monthly Challenge
Hi friends! I’m a contributing writer for Out There Monthly, and I’m helping them coordinate a new program, the Team OTM Challenge, which encourages people to complete at least one participating race each month from May through October. We’re working with race directors of more than 30 events (and counting) in 2016 to provide a diverse selection of runs, rides, triathlons and other adventure races at discounted prices. You can sign up as an individual or as a 4-person team, and in addition to general fun, you’ll get a tech shirt, cool swag, prize drawings, and free beer (while supplies last) at our kick-off and wrap-up parties. Let me know if you’re interested or have any questions about the program. Cheers! –Janelle McCabe, teamotm@outtheremonthly.com
