-------------------------------------------------------- There'll be a new course for those planning on running Saturday's annual Dr. Steven Fetzer Memorial 20K. Co-race director Ann Walker-Rabatin called it "challenging but fair.

"Simply we wanted a change of pace,'' she said. "There was nothing wrong with the other course but maybe runners wanted a change of scenery.''

The race will start at the Best Western Apache and finish at Edina Realty, 1301 Salem Rd. S.W.
