Very touching story about your son. I'm glad you pay such attention, and I'm sure he is too. : ) And that Utah race looks beautiful. Maybe next fall for something there....

Thank you, Ruth! That's a huge part of the fun in writing this newsletter, finding these more out-of-the-way races in interesting places. Especially now b/c of Covid, I'm trying to find little races that don't draw big crowds and be run safely -- but also just b/c they can take us to really interesting, quirky, unique places.

Loved the post Terell! Thank you for that. The poem was exactly what I needed today as a parent to an 11 and 14 year old, both of whom are in full self-expression mode! :)

Touching words! I never thought why I chose running instead of a group sport, but now I see it clearly, cause I’m very shy... I’ll try to encourage my kids also on group sports, they don’t have to be like me if they don’t want to...

Thanks so much, Vanessa! By nature, I am shy as well -- I prefer golf and running :) Totally agree with what you're saying about kids. Someone gave me some really good advice once, to just notice what they're enthusiastic about and encourage them to do it. And that's really all we can do :)
