Cotton Row Run

Okay, so I'm finally getting to look through some of my photos from the Cotton Row Run a while back. My horrible photography skills kept me from taking any really good ones, but this should give you a taste of what I saw.

Sprinters up the hill.

I started out at the Fulchers', high atop Cardiac Hill. They have the best viewing location for the half-way point of the race as it bends all the way around their yard during the ascent. It's fun watching the first set of sprinters race up the hill. Slowly, the runners become joggers, and then walkers, and then grunting, sweating crawlers. Me, I was offered a hot cup of coffee and a lawn chair for the ultimate viewing pleasure. No sense of being so tired and out of breath so early in the morning!

Luke S. and Bill B. were too quick up the hill for me to even get a decent photo of either of them. Mark S. too.

Manda was close to the front of the pack with Wade right behind.

I'm telling you - the girl's got GUNS!! I need to get a photo of her in all of her Body Attack (Jazzercise) glory. Major buffness going on! She did better than last year, even after falling and bloodying up a knee. Tough stuff.

Wadie Pie.

Here comes my honey.

Ryan says, "Dude!" while Amy threatens to punch the camera.

That hill is no small feat!

Here are the big bro and lil sis at the finish line. All smiles now, Amy!

I have had a lot of fun watching you guys! Last year it was just Charlie, Manda Panda, and Bill B at the 10k. This year there were at least 6 more. Congrats, you guys!
