Today's Run
About 40 people turned out for my "Sayonara to the Seventies" Sunday run. Tomorrow I will (hopefully) wake up 80 years old. Hard to fathom! I don't have the words to express my sincere thanks to all of you for your friendship and support. Suffice to say that I deeply appreciate it.
For those of you who missed today's run, we saw faces whom we haven't seen for a long time. Judy Greer , a running luminary of some years ago, came over from Tampa, and Geralynn Kolp came over from the Indian River area, so we had a coast to coast representation. Also my son flew in from
Chris, Jackie, Judy, Charline, Geralynn, Barbara, Rose and husband Rich go back up to 25 years or more! What a testimonial this is to the continuity of our Sunday running group!
Belated Birthday wishes
I failed to mention that Christine, one of our youngest runners, celebrated her birthday on August 1. Sorry Christine, and Happy Birthday from all of us!
My Reminiscing Running resume
- Tomorrow I enter my 8th competitive age group and my 32nd year of running. I now have 300 races under my belt.
- I've run in 30+ countries on 4 continents in places like London, Singapore, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Sydney, Auckland, Istanbul, Rome, St Petersburg (Russia) and Prague (where I got lost).
