Thoughts [#65]: Run Report – BMR (8/5/2020, Weds)

Joint effort: Black Men Run

[½ MIN READ]

What a great bunch of guys Black Men Run were! It was amazing to get to know them and learn some of their life and running stories. One guy works for Abington Township and another is at Cheltenham High School with JRC (Coach) Drew. 2 are teachers. One is a marathoner. All were as great runners as they were people! And just like me, they have punctuality issues. Train Dave and I and another newbie Kwasi were there by 2 minutes after the hour and we still beat the regulars by 8 minutes:D! We’ll be doing that again, perhaps more regularly at once every month or so. It’s a great change of pace to keep us from getting tired of ourselves.

(L-R behind me: Kwasi, Train Dave, Dave Sr., Andre, Kevin, Lawrence)
