Route will change slightly to accommodate walkers who would like a shorter route and runners who want to run 4 miles…The first part of the route will not change. Walkers may walk 2 miles by turning left off of Broadway onto 5th St. and returning to Maynard’s. Others will continue east. After we cross Rattlesnake Bridge follow the sidewalk all the way to 4th Avenue. At this point walkers can make it a 3-mile walk by turning back under the underpass and return to Maynard’s. Runners will continue north on the east side of 4th Ave. to University, cross over to the west side of 4th Ave. and return to Maynard’s. Of course you can turn back at any point along 4th Ave. The full 4-mile route will take us past all participating restaurants and bars, including Brooklyn Pizza Company, Bumsteds and Delectables. If you would like to print a map, click on “Route” above and download your own map. Directions will be provided tonight.  Enjoy!!

The Running Shop and Worldly Soles, our exclusive shoe sponsors have provided gift certificates for our 2010 drawings. Tonight we will have five gift certificates, El Charro, Maynard’s, Arbonne, Running Shop and Worldly Soles. Don’t miss it!!

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.

Bumsteds at 500 N. 4th 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

XOOM JUICE will stay open later for MMM beginning Monday, Feb. 1…stop in for a refreshing healthy drink after your walk/run, at exclusive MMM prices!

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!!
