That’s right we’re having at least 2 more of these pub runs this year. One will be July 7th or the 14th and the other sometime this fall. So keep looking on this site and/or stay in touch with the people you’ve been looking at over the last 50 photos.  Â

You know it was a beautiful day in January when AFTER the race many people were hanging out in tee shirts and shorts. With temperatures around 60 degrees everyone was comfortable and smiling. Inside the building I found Lara, Rich(552), and Sharon. Rich is in the process of doing the 50 marathons in 50 states. At this […]

The smiles were everywhere and continious.  Gail had such a great smile that she lit up the every place we stopped. And we had matching hats and almost matching Boston Marathon jackets, too. Donna, also, was wearing a marathon jacket. Her’s was from the ING Marathon. Her husband, Steve, was with her on this–training–run.  John and […]

Jen and I shared beers, conversation and warm sunshine at our first pub stop. I had to behave myself though, cause her mom, Sue, and another friend were watching my every move……..just kidding.    Jennifer was probably the most photographed person in our crowd. Her hat had lights that lit up. She was our guiding light […]
