Running

I started my running almost 6 years ago and haven’t looked back? I’m a slower runner, but I usually get to the finish line or back to the car.

My sparkling personality is the last thing they will tell you. Slightly cranky is what they will say.

It still hasn’t sunk in. But it better, because I’m doing this again! Short version: great race, exceptional organization, and I’m probably spoiled for life with the exceptional service from the directors. I finished. And I did it before they closed the course. …
