As many of you know, I like to throw in a plug for the volunteers as often as possible. Being an organizer for races with up to 7,000 runners, I can’t give volunteers enough praise and thanks. Without them most, if not all, of these events would not exist. And Peter and I met at another […]

Heather and Amy were the first people I talked to after arriving at the GazBar. They are sisters.  Amy decided one day that she wanted to do the couch to 5k program. Heather, already an avid runner, decided to be one of Amy’s biggest supporters and now they go to races together. What a great sharing […]

John and I got to talk as we were running the race. He is pictured here with Karrissa. I told John I could relate to running in sweats. When I was training to run across the U.S. I had never been off the east coast. With running through desserts in my mind, I thought I would […]

For the second week in a row this is not a photo of the sun setting on my way home from a race. This, again, is a picture of a pre-sunrise on my way to a race. I was headed with a bit of new excitement because I was headed to run in something I […]

When I first arrived at the Davis farm two hours early (which is typical for me)  things seemed to be the kinda normal quiet. The sounds of people setting up registration booths and all that goes with the pre race normal activities. I introduced myself to Tyler, who’s the race director for the Color Vibe runs […]

It’s always fun for me to see that a family can participate in an event together and have a great day sharing time.  Logan,Heather and Chris(130975) are proof positive of that. Ruthanne and Stephanie, like many of the participants, I found trying to clean up a bit before climbing into the car for the trip home. […]

To recap: This is what I looked like before the run…. And this is what I looked like at the end of this fun-filled, exciting day. Oh yeah, and I ran a 5k getting from one face to the other. If sitting around on the weekend doing nothing is for you, then this is not for you. BUT if […]

OK so it’s not a great picture. What do you want for 5:45 a.m. on Sunday morning Sept 15th while doing 80 (oops I mean 65) miles and hour and trying to take a picture of the sunrise.   And where was I going to so early in the morning???? To a place I’d never been before, […]
