Runners, food, music and glasses of carbs, what a great combination to help create a great day. Steve, Sara, Bill, Kara and myself posed for this photo— just cause I asked. And turns out they didn’t know each other until I asked them to pose for the picture. Cause that’s the way we are.  John and I met […]

Before leaving Worcester on race day I always make my way to some of the gathering places near by. There are always many of the runners that have run the race that are doing the same thing. Cary and I met at The Banner Bar And Grill. He, also, is from a good distance away. We had a great […]

  As I made my way back to my car, I had to make one last walk across the now enpty  lot that an hour or so before had been full of activity, laughter, the exchanging of running stories,  and music.  But one thing it will always be full of for me is wonderful memories. I’m […]

About 3 weeks ago I wrote about fire fighters I saw at a race that wore full rescue gear while running the 6k in Worcester. Upon arriving to the Brockton race they were the first people I met. What you see here is some of the equipment that they would be putting on a short […]

             John and Dave ran in honor of another fire fighter’s child. That small child is battling stage 4 cancer. John brought a tee shirt that most everybody signed. From there it was delivered to the family to show that we’re all praying for this child’s victory against cancer.   Come next year and support this […]

Rebecca and I started talking as we were getting to run. She pushes her daughter, who gives her mom words of wisdom as they cruise around the courses. To show how small the world of running can be, I knew of Rebecca and she knew of me. I am working along with the Mass. Easter Seals to […]

Amy and her son, Eric, were at the race site even earlier than I was, and I was 2 hours early. No, she didn’t run in these clothes. Living farely close by, she was able to go home, clean up and return for the rest of the festivities.     Troy, Dan and John were also […]
