2023.05.10 - Runs that Inspire
Two weeks ago, at the starting line of the Trail Marathon, I asked how many were running their first marathon. It is rare to see a hand go up due to the brutal nature of the hilly single track trail course. I was shocked when around 15 hands went up! This past weekend at the Island Time 24 hour trail run, I watched in awe of Josephine Weeden as she pounded out the miles, leading the field all day and night and hitting 100 miles in 23 hours and 5 minutes! Seeing what is possible, can no doubt, give others the courage to line up and try. This weekend the RF Events Crew will be in Detroit Friday night for the Hightail to Ale 5K, I will be announcing at the starting line, again, asking the field how many of them are first time 5K runners? It always gives me a chill and a thrill to witness these life changing events! Busy Friday? Join us!
Run, run, run, run, run,
