Woods to Water Relay

The Arctic Loons (Sara Hollingsworth, Bruce Bauer, John Bankson, Tony Goldenstein, Stacy Gilpin, Phil & Kelly Rogers & me) ran the 80-mile Woods to Water Relay last Sunday, from Cable to Ashland. We had fun and did pretty well, too, battling it out with some recent college grads in goofy costumes (our team's age range was 34 to 49). I was the weak link speed-wise, but at least I brought the coffee for pre-race fueling. And my five-star personality should count for something. Photos soon, I hope.

Kilimanjaro & safari 2008

This was my third trip to Tanzania. I had ten women and my group and seven of them made it to the summit. I, however, did not, as I became very nauseous at about 17,000 feet and turned around. Fortunately there are no photos of this, it wasn't a pretty sight.
