Katina Green (HF12236, MM155380, DA3564) – MedalMondayโ€ฆ.Knocked out HM#76 at the Lisbon, Portugal Race event. Beautiful and scenic course that started at the 25 de Abril bridge (reminiscent of the San Francisco golden gate bridge) and continued for a few miles along the bridge, before hitting the streets of Lisbon and finishing up in the beautiful area of Belem. Since Lisbon is a very hilly city, I appreciate the race facilitators outlining a fun flat course. The race drew participants from all over the world. It is one I definitely recommend to others.

Sunday saw the super fun Oscar-themed Red Carpet Run Half in Orting. Friendly event, which was a fundraiser for a local runner doing the London Marathon. Fabulous aid stations and a fabulous hand-crafted medal.

Barbara Rausch- (HF16197, DA3430, MM14998) -The Shamrockโ€™n Half today in Sacramento is half number 160. I always ask myself why I run these races. The answer is for my health and to see friends. The rain held off and it was a fun day. I forgot that I had I AM SUN printed on my bib in celebration of hitting Sun Level last year.

Katie Galvin (HF18478, DA3721, MM15882) -Ran the Inaugural Annapolis Running Festival Half Marathon on Saturday and enjoyed getting to run through the downtown area by the water. But It was hilly and windy!! Pretty sure I looked like I was running like Phoebe from Friends getting hit by the crosswinds coming down the bridge towards the end ๐Ÿคฃ and the finish line kept being blown down so the finish line was down by the time I crossed ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ For an inaugural event, it was pretty good!
