Running Man

Adam has come up with some pretty cockamamie ideas in the nearly 12 years that we’ve known each other.

Anyone remember the ‘dress like a cowboy at the pancake supper’ idea?  I still shudder.

Some of the more recent have worked for him.  Get an MBA. Learn how to bake bread (any weight I’ve lost from increased walking in this country has been gained back!).  And now, run a half-marathon.

The Bristol Half Marathon was September 30th.  Adam was among the 14,000 runners who took part.   He might have been slightly behind the race winner’s time of 62min 50sec, but he finished strong and I couldn’t be more proud!

and running

Finally finished with a smile.

(For the official record, the smile took over an hour to appear after the race ended)
