« My First 1/2 Marathon | Main | Bob Parks Making a Difference »

April 29, 2007

Friends and Family

Finished_brotherinlaws_3 Even making the trip down here to watch LeAnn run the past couple of years, I had no idea how much fun it is to be a participant.  Once you start running, you find out how many other people you know that are runners also.

The picture is of my brother-in-law, Bill Greer, and me at the finish.  We actually don't look too bad considering that we just finished our first Country Music 1/2 Marathon.

Several friends, former clients, and other Bob Park's agents were part of the fun yesterday.  Congrats to....

Then after a great day, we got to share a fantastic meal with friends John and Angela Blankenship.  John was my inspiration to get started first with regular exercise, then to running.  John, thanks for dinner and pushing me to do this!

See you all next year.  My room is already booked!
