Run the Bluegrass in Kentucky
TC Mattoon (HF18537) -First of all, y’all from Kentucky have my respect after running “Run the Bluegrass” today. I think I’d rather run in ninety percent humidity than tackle the hills we ran today on my training runs every week. I’m a slow half marathoner and I’m ok with that. I’ve been getting slowly fasterContinue reading “Run the Bluegrass in Kentucky”
Marine Corps Historic Half
Gregory Rouson (HF8068, MM12723, DA2354) Lifetime half marathon #194 and Marine Corps Historic Half Marathon #3…DONE!!!
