Nothing like a Super Sunday to get us motivated for Monday! Let's see if we can soak up some of the Eagles "team first" mentality and make it a great week. We have many great workout offerings to help you prepare for spring and summer events, our Feb Four challenge continues into a second week, uniforms are on sale for one final week, and we're rounding out our 2025 Gators roster with membership renewals running through Friday. Here is more about all of that... News and notes: - 2025 Gators Membership Registration is Open! Just a reminder if you have not yet renewed your club membership that your membership will remain intact until Valentine's Day / this Friday 2/14. After that we'll update our records to reflect the current registered athletes at that time. And congratulations to Dana Mathes <https://www.facebook.com/groups/216774858507294/user/1178680671/?__cft__[0]=AZXikbR5US5AkGd3mOa49PS6tBagaplBcFnx4QSJ7Sk5eyyJMQF23vJLZ9oUvfMenOFU2pG3EBhhvvyMR8OBkqOwxWFdSX2RT7AG7ev4QRx_lfQweK5y4XYHNtJ9JTxmfFbbpmish9-2_JIWzpupRQlfRPLgcj-IvXOoGZ0Q7XRoHg&__tn__=-]K-R> who won the membership renewal drawing for an entry to Steelman Racing <https://www.facebook.com/groups/216774858507294/user/100063670568684/?__cft__[0]=AZXikbR5US5AkGd3mOa49PS6tBagaplBcFnx4QSJ7Sk5eyyJMQF23vJLZ9oUvfMenOFU2pG3EBhhvvyMR8OBkqOwxWFdSX2RT7AG7ev4QRx_lfQweK5y4XYHNtJ9JTxmfFbbpmish9-2_JIWzpupRQlfRPLgcj-IvXOoGZ0Q7XRoHg&__tn__=-]K-R>'s "Rock the Nock" running event taking place on Saturday, April 19 that includes 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon distances!
