Happening this Weekend in Lansdowne, May 22-23

A quick 5K Update: Even though the early registration deadline has passed, there's still plenty of time to sign up for the Lansdowne Memorial Day 5K. Remember, five kilometers is only a bit more than three miles, so even if you haven't spent the entire winter burning up your treadmill you can still get yourself across the finish line without too much training.
