Poets On The Run
About the event
Join avid area runner and poet Michelle Holland here at The Running Hub Sunday December 6th for a running poetry reading!
Michelle competes at a very high level of the sport in masters (over 40) athletics, and was a part of our High Desert Half Marathon Training Group this year. She has also written poetry for many years on all sorts of themes and topics, including running!
She'll be previewing her upcoming poetry book Circe at the Laundromat, which will be released March 2nd and is now available for presale.
Michelle will delve into a number of running-related poems and narratives, exploring experiences that many runners will be able to relate to, and as an extended metaphor of our lives. She will also open the reading up to audience questions and comments and invite anyone who wants to share their own "running" poem/narrative!
Before the reading, there will be an optional 3-mile group run starting at 2:30 p.m. The reading will start at 3:15 p.m. If you would like to only attend the reading, you're welcome to show up then!
