I’m 71 … I have 7 planned before years end … all in FL. I wish you both the best experiences in all your races. I still have races during which I joke at Mile-2 “why do I keep signing up for this insanity?” … but by Mile 12, it’s “Can’t wait for the next race,”

Hi Dave

Another older runner here—69–and fully vaccinated. I’m trying to get all 50 states done and COVID Rele slowed that goal down-I’m about to do State 32–in Grand Rapids MI—tomorrow! Just worried about the heat not about my time-/just so dang hot here in the MidWest🔥🔥🔥

Also, tentatively doing a race in Iowa in September and perhaps IL-/we are starting nee mask mandates Mondaybso crossing my fingers!! And toes!

Well … got 1 of the 7 done this AM … 9 miles of “partly cloudy” followed by sun and hot and humid. PA system on the fritz so race director sang The Star Spangled Banner a cappella and several hundred of us joined in … THAT was a first!
