John and his brother Jim(334)and I have met recently at a Worcester race. They ran saturday as did their wives, Shirley(335)  and Jill. It feels like we have known each other for years. Running, approached correctly, gives you a world filled with friends that are somewhere just waiting for you to meet them.Â
Desneiges was a great help while running the race. I usually don’t look towards other runners to pace myself while running. For some reason this was just one of those days when a pace setter helped me run a better race then I might have. And she was the one I followed. “Thanks”.  Â
Dee(810) and Jodi and I were standing in the same area as a small breeze started blowing through the parking lot. Since it was almost 90 degrees and sunny as could be we all took a moment to just enjoy it.
I hope you’re noticing that everyone in evey photo is smiling. That’s cause the setting at the Canal Diggers always allows everyone to have a great time.  There are a few more entries after this one with more pics and smiles.
