October 22nd Results (9.2 miles)

Our day could have been much tougher. This was a warm rain and gentle, not the predicted monsoon with high winds.

We can hope our marathoners, Carrie and birthday boy Neal, had good luck – weatherwise and otherwise – for their Columbia Gorge Marathon in Hood River. I’ll update with their results later today.

Thanks to Lindsey for opening the store this morning.

TODAY’S 9.2 MILES
