Firecracker 5 mile run-Granville, Oh



Today the Firecracker 5k took place in Granville, Ohio which was part of the many 4th of July Independence Day activities this year in Licking County. I am very proud of my brother Mike and his wife Nancy! To see them both actively compete as a couple in 5 mile runs and dedicate time daily together to their passion is inspirational & moving.

This morning I watched as Mike & Nancy prepared for the 5 mile run, and as they each later, crossed the finish line. You could tell from the looks on their face the race hadn't been easy, but they did it in good time, and I cheered them on as they each entered into the runners chute. I was grateful I could be there to witness each of their individual accomplishment of crossing the finish line.

Congratulations Mike & Nancy! You're both champions & athletes of the highest caliber!
