The MMM hand stamp will be required to receive all MMM Monday night discounts…beginning Monday, January 18. If you choose to partake, be sure you ask for a hand stamp when you check in. You will not be able to take advantage of the discounts without it, even if you have a map, or are in the company of others who have a hand stamp.

Best of Metromix” awards will be announced the week of January 25….”Our own” Maynard’s Market and Kitchen has been nominated for best restaurant, Cup Café for best happy hour and best desert restaurant, Club Congress for best live music bar and El Charro for best Mexican food and best margarita. Let’s make sure they win!!! Click here to vote before January 24^th.

Monday, January 18 is “Clean the route Monday”…You will find bags and gloves at the check-in table. Please take one and pick up any trash you find along our route…this is entirely optional, but we hope you will participate. Leave your bag in a receptacle alone the way or return it to Maynard’s and make a pile of bags on the patio. Be watching for our Tucson Clean and Beautiful street sign that will say “Meet Me at Maynard’s, Southern Arizona Roadrunners”…you will see it soon on Broadway between Euclid and Maynard’s.

Bumsteds at 500 N. 4^th Ave…now offers a 20% food discount, exclusively to MMM Athletes. We hear the sandwiches are amazing! . Check them out! You must have your MMM hand stamp.

MMM discount list changes (and grows) frequently. From now on the back of your route guide will list participating businesses…but no details. You will find up-to-date discount specials on the website only. It’s easy…just click on the “Discount specials” tab at the top of the homepage each Monday before you come.

You will also find news of importance about Meet Me at Maynard’s. There may come a day that we change our location for one Monday…like a field trip! Wouldn’t you want to know that before you arrive? J

Training Tips with Dr. Stephen Brewer…join Dr. Brewer for an informal and interactive 30 minutes of tips on peak performance. Bring your questions and join the discussion…6:45 to 7:15 inside the Market on Monday. Don’t worry…if you win the drawing we will come find you.

MMM seeking volunteer walking/running guides…If you would like to volunteer occasionally to lead a group of new people (or just people who would like to join a group) at the Monday night walk/runs, please email

Jocie at joc555@comcast.net.

We would like to have two guides for the walkers and one for runners:

One walking guide…Approx. 18-20 minute pace, and possibly only two miles.

One walking guide…Approx. 15 minute pace, full 3.4 mile course.

One running guide, approx. 10-13 minute pace, full 3.4 mile course.

Our MMM band The Determined Luddites is offering two CDs for sale at the check-in table. “…Better Luck Yesterday” and “String Theory”. They are only $15…take a look.

Five reasons to volunteer!

5. Your “I’m worthy” meter is not recording

4. You’ve noticed that the same people volunteer nearly every Monday

3. Your mother-in-law wants you to visit on Mondays

2. You want to earn your MMM t-shirt (or your second one)

1. You want to be part of the best and healthiest event Tucson has to offer!

Please send us an email, and let us know you can volunteer once or twice a month, or just try volunteering one time meetmeatmaynards@gmail.com If you can give up your walk/run every once in a while that would be great. If not, then you can volunteer until 6:00. THANK YOU!!!

Get Out!!
