Last weekend we had our DASH Half marathon / half marathon relay race around Lake Kampeska. It was a gorgeous day for a race and many good memories were made. One thing that keeps popping back into my head, however, was a comment a lady made while she was watching runners cross the finish line.

Last weekend I saw on Facebook a bunch of photos posted from this year\’s club nationals swim meet, and oh boy did it send me down memory lane! I dug up a bunch of photos from my college swimming days, and spent a lot of time thinking about all the wonderful memories and friendships I

So, I\’m sure I\’m not the only one who\’s over this never ending winter we\’ve been experiencing. It\’s enough to drive us all crazy!
