A tip of the hat

When I was walking with my family after running to the park last week, someone saw my Portland marathon t-shirt and asked if I really ran a marathon. Now, he wasn't trying to be mean, just making conversation. When I said yes, he replied, "I tip my hat to you," and then continued on.

I didn't run this past weekend. Again. It was Christmas tree time. The whole family out to Helvetia and cut us down a tree.

I have fond memories of the roads out there. I ran the Helvetia half marathon out there. That was one very nice race. I hope to run it again.
