Big River Logging Road

"Run often.  Run long.  But never outrun your joy of running." -- Julie Isphording

Big River,  J. Loomis

It was the kind of morning that we'd all been hoping for, for the past couple of years.  Warm (58), calm and wet!  At the start, we figured it was just fog, but before long, the mist turned into drops and before long, the puddles became deep enough to go over the soles and soak our socks.  It was great!

 I apologize, for causing  our only "rule" to be broken.  I was involved in meeting a new person, Judith, and before I knew it, we were about 35 seconds late!  Thanks for coming, Judith.  Also, a little ways into our run, another runner, Cyd, caught up with us and I'm hoping she remembers the name of our group and can find us on the internet.  She lives locally and said she'd be interested in coming again.

Others present today:  Charlene, Geri, Nancy T., Roger, Bob J., Rod, John, Bob, Katie, Melissa, Steve, Fay, Nancy and Tom (15).

The State Park trails are pretty soggy and there are a lot of trees down.  This limits the places we have to run and hike.  Next week's venue should be fine, no matter the weather and it is a favorite for those that want to exercise their dogs.

Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah and season's greetings to all!
