Oh wow, this is AWESOME, Julie! Well done everyone, and hurrah for Team Run to Write at the Good Samaritan 5k/10k! I'm having a catch-up on my reading, and oh wow, this is such a great post to have started from!

A most celebratory post, Julie B! I smiled at the image of your two children/runners. Brindsley flapping his wings for liftoff. Delaney…what leg strength!

Best of all, not a frown to be found in any of the images, but no shortage of smiles. It would be easy to say “endorphins”…though team spirit and light hearts is more likely. The very notion of a wild turkey as a running companions makes me smile from ear to ear. 😋

Good morning, Mary B! The turkey was amazing. I was so surprised and excited that she continued to run with us for a bit before you dipped back into the treeline. They are so fun to watch. I hope your week is off to a great start.

“Dipping back into the tree line” is so perfectly descriptive! My week is great so far, hope yours is, too.

Good morning, Claudette! We had a blast.

God is so good. We would love to have you join us next year! There are so many walkers, too, and it's a great course along the canal.
