Couldn’t Leave Without Her

by altardy on November 24, 2009

I somehow just felt I needed to get a picture with Karen before the Run For All Ages day was over on Nov, 1st. She just seemed to be everywhere I looked. As you can see she took a metal, 2nd place in her age division. But even outside of the award I saw other […]

New–Old Friends

by altardy on November 24, 2009

If you could turn the clock back 2 years, I could look you in the eyes and say “I don’t know anybody in these photos except myself”, and be 100% correct. But now, 2 years later, that would be very incorrect. You have actually seen all 3 of these people in this blog section of […]

Picture This

by altardy on November 15, 2009

I had never met Ken until Nov. 1. I ran in a race on Nov. 1 in Lexington, Ma.. As I was running I noticed a guy who not only brought a camera to the race, but, was taking pictures as he was running the race. He would hold up the camera as he ran […]

These are a couple pictures from the Run For All Ages 5k on November 11. There were a lot of photos from that day because it turned out to be one of those days that kept getting better and better as the day and the sunshine progressed. Vicky and I not only were wearing matching […]

Not A Victory….An Answer To Prayer

by altardy on November 11, 2009
