How Our MRTT Runs Have Evolved

To say our local Moms RUN This Town (MRTT) chapter has grown a bit since I joined would be an understatement.  My friend and chapter co-leader Amanda added me to the group on January 11, 2014, and if memory serves me correctly, I was about the 60th member.  Today we have 727 members. Just for […]

A Group Run, Fat Bastard, And Katy Perry

Pre-run photos are getting harder to take now that it’s staying dark later in the mornings, especially since our MRTT running group starts at zero dark thirty most mornings.  Since we run so many different distances on Saturday mornings, taking a large group picture at the end of our run in out of the question.  […]
