Congratulations are in order for my (soon-to-be) trail running phenom of a sister as she ran her first half marathon today. Where do they hold a half marathon the Monday before Christmas, you ask? No where. My sister didn’t need a race to run that far for the first time.
Way to go Gretch! I can’t wait to run in WCSP or up on Bald Pate with you over the weekend.
