Imagine running around White Bear Lake just as summer winds down. Refreshing breezes blowing off the water, the Lake Links Trail beneath your feet, and friends and family cheering you on.
Now stop imagining and lace up those shoes! With plenty of sunny days ahead, this is the perfect time to start training for the Bear Water Run, a 10-mile race (or, for some of us, jog) around the lake sponsored by the White Bear Lake Lions Club.
Proceeds from the event, to be held this year on September 10, support the Lions' work in the White Bear Lake community. For more information and to register, go to Bear Water Run.
Interested, but never run that far? You might check out the Runner's World article "How to Prepare for Your First 10-Mile Run" for some suggestions.
Hope to see you September 10!
