Our runing club, SERC, held the annual banquet on Sunday evening at Primo Vino restaurant in Little Italy. It was a great night with way too much delicious food. I am proud to say I was given the Don Stanley Male Runner of the Year award. Truthfully, I was surprised because there are other runners in the club who I feel deserved this more than me. Runners like Tim Clement who won the Burning River 100 miler, Dave Peterman who successfully completed more ultras last year than I ran races of any kind, and Steve Hawthorne who qualified for Boston for the first time and completed his first 100 miler in the same year. The Ruta Kunevicius Female Runner of the Year award was won by Janet Edwards, and I was really happy to see here receive it. Go Janet...and this year will be better still.
Later in the evening, we voted for the club officers. Steve Hawthorne and I were elected and VP and President, and Janet Edwards was re-elected as Treasurer. It was a great night, and I am so happy to have joind SERC a few years ago. It is a wonderful group of runners who thrive on the challenges and competition. I have received so much help and advice from the so many of my SERC friends. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, as if that was not enough, here is another really cool thing. Back in December, I was interviewed by Richard Lovett for an article for Competitor Northwest magazine. The article was published in the March edition. I just received a couple of copies from the editor. Click on the images to enlarge.
