Kicking 2026 off with a run (duh), East End Beach ocean plunge (!), and brunch at Becky's Diner (yum). Join for some or all of these activities.
9am - run from East End Beach around the East End/downtown
10am - approximate timing for the ocean plunge
asap after that - change and head to brunch at Becky's
Notes: the run will be at a party pace, go faster if you like but then you'll have to wait for the rest of us for plunging. Come prepared with a full change of clothes for after the plunge, you'll thank us later as no amount of hot coffee will cut the chill of wet underwear. Spectators welcome at the plunge (we need someone to manage a video of this nonsense).
