Sensational Sand Run

We had a great 18 mile run today. Our thanks to Cindy, Bob, and Debi. They invited us along and we had a great time. We appreciate you mapping out a beautiful route. Can't wait to do it again.

I got very nostalgic running a portion of the Akron Marathon course again. I can't wait to run Cleveland, but my heart will forever belong to the Akron Marathon. It was my first!

Cindy took some great pictures before, during, and after the run. I LOVE that she travels with a camera!
