This movie is playing at many theaters around the Sacramento area, not only at Roseville. May be a theater more convenient for you. Further, this is a leaderless event and for your information.

Roy I was looking for something more in walking distance to the theater. Just trying to simplify things. There is Fresh Choice or Cheesecake Factory just across Arden. Oh and my all time fav CoCo's. There used to be a Sardine Factory near and an Olive Garden too. Maybe too far of a walk though.

Andrea E, What no boys in tow? Guess they would not appreciate the movie. Or is it your opportunity to excape for the evening? I thought it was my one night away, but alas it is not to be.

Phred - yes, yes, and yes! :D After looking at Google Earth, it looks like Applebees, Chili's, and the Mongolian (Great Wall BBQ) place are the closest.

Anyone who whishes, some of us are meeting at Applebee?s (Address: 2024 Arden Way, Sacramento - Phone: (916) 564-5296) at 5:45-6:00 for dinner before the movie. It is located adjacent to the theater parking lot and is easy walking distance. Head Count - Please let me know if you will be joining us, as I want to make sure we have plenty of seating at dinner. Email is fred.strickland@gmail.com. During the movie seating is ummmmmm ??.up to you and those you want to be next to or not. Haha.

SharelGroup SupporterGreat movie and dinner with a fun group. Tough folks who made me realize I can't let some hardware in my ankle stop me from pushing myself out on the trails.

Tracy JueGroup Supporter+1 guestThe movie Race across the sky had take home message to inspired us to challenge beyond what we think we can do. Some of the racers has faced enormous challenges and yet they disciplined themselves to compete in a 100 mile race. I was impressed that some racers within a few years had recovered from an accident or disease to race in such a enduring race and not quit.

The Century Stadium Folks - Looking for dinner suggestions within walking distance of the theater. Mongolian BBQ is near by. Any other suggestions? Tom C mentioned Plutos and Fresh Choice, but they may be a bit of a walk (Arden Fair Mall). It has been awhile since I have been there, but I thought there were some restruants nearby (like a Applebees or something). What say you???
