I was going to wait to put this picture into my blog section. But, I decided this was the place for it. Kyle is a great guy that was volunteering at the 32nd Annual Brewster Brew Run on August 14th. There are 2 more entries about the race day after this one. Since I met […]

What a beautiful day for a road race August 14th turned out to be. And that was especially good, because I had decided to expand my racing circle despite battling a back injury. Brewster, Ma. was the scene and was, with traffic, 4 plus hours away from my home. Brewster is part of Cape Cod […]

At every road race I find that certain people stand out as the ones that everyone seems to count on for direction. Bethany was the first volunteer I met as I wandered the grounds where the 1st annual Steve Garon Memorial 5k was about to happen. She seemed to be everywhere during the pre-race and […]

These are some of the great new friends I made 80 miles from home at the Steve Garon Memorial 5k on July 25th. Starting at the top and going clockwise. Chris (a firefighter having worked aside of Steve) and his son Zach. They are not only father and son, I could tell they were best […]
