BBVA COMPASS BANK JOINS MMM AS A MAJOR SPONSOR.

We are pleased to welcome BBVA Compass Bank as a sponsor of MMM. These good people are long-time Tucsonans, very committed to healthy lifestyles and great supporters of our downtown. Look for Dominic Parry at MMM on October 18. He will bring information about BBVA Compass and answer your questions. When you meet Dominic, tell him thanks for their support.

MMM PROVIDES BLINKY LIGHTS FOR “MEET ME AT BOSTON’S”
Have you been to MMB? It’s a “Marana thing”, it’s every Wednesday and it’s lots of fun. Click above on Meet Me at Boston’s for more info.

“GET MOVING TUCSON” IS THIS SATURDAY!
This is the 6th annual 10-mile and 5K event, starting and ending in downtown Tucson. Thanks again, TMC, for stepping forward to support this important event. Enjoy GMT and then stick around for Tucson Meet Yourself. What better way to celebrate Tucson, than to demonstrate your commitment to fitness, and enjoy the rich and multicultural heritage of our community.

Although online registration closes at noon October 7, you may sign up with our exclusive shoe sponsor, The Running Shop (3055 N. Campbell). That is also where you will pick up your packet on Friday from 10 to 3. Are you registered? No time like the present. You can also sign up from 6:30 to 7:30 on race morning at 115 N. Church…but why wait?

DO YOU KNOW YOU CAN RESERVE THE COMMUNITY TABLE IN MAYNARDS MARKET FOR

YOU AND YOUR WALKING/ RUNNING BUDDIES?

Wouldn’t it be fun to reserve the community table (as many as you can fit) in the Market on a Monday night? You can have burgers and beer, or order from the Maynards menu. Call for your reservation: 545-057

TMC TO RETURN OCTOBER 25 WITH “ASK A DOC”.
Stay tuned for more info.

TEP LOANS BLINKY LIGHTS TO EVERY MMM ATHLETE

We have blinky lights for every walker and runner to borrow and return. You will find a white plastic box with a sign that says, “TAKE ONE…RETURN ONE”. It’s on the honor system, so just take a light from the box before you begin and return it when you finish on Monday. This way, no one will have to walk/ run without one this year. Thanks everyone.


FLASHLIGHTS ARE REQUIRED

Any old flashlight will do. You may purchase an “official” Meet Me at Maynards flashlight in Maynards Market for only $5, including batteries.
