Red River had an amazing group of runners in attendance today for the High Mountain Half Run! The weather was beautiful but I did hear some mutterings about the wind being crazy. I didn't really notice from the back of my friend Hank's motorcycle. Thanks Hank! That's right, I was on the back of Hank's bike taking photos like those photographers at the Tour De France Bicycle Race. The only difference was that this is not France and no one was on a bicycle. Anyway, I am pretty sure I looked way cool plus it was super fun. Of course the 5K'ers and 1/2 Marathoners were cool! I had so much fun visiting with these amazing athletes. They were all just plain nice! Imagine being nice when someone is pointing a camera in your face yelling at you to wave when you are running up hill near 10,000 feet. Not only do these people smile they even wave!
A huge shout out to all of the volunteers in Red River who make this event happen! Impressive! Congratulations to the winners and that means everyone that made it this morning!
