On Saturday March 8, we had a new record of 41 runners who took on the half marathon. After such a crazy winter, the warmer and sunny conditions were a welcoming sight. Parents, friends, and spectators cheered the runners on from Central Park out to West Spring Lake Road towards Rycenga Park making the turn around back into town. What a great day, so proud of you all!
There were so many people that made this day happen and I cannot thank you enough!
North Ottawa Community Hospital, Spring Lake Township, The Village of Spring Lake,
City of Ferrysburg, Chris Ostrowsk, Steve Bolthouse, JoLynne and Bob Strait, Pollie and Mike Gilchrist, Jean Arteaga, and all of those who brought food/drinks and helped out on race day.
"We run, not only because we think it is doing us good, but...because it helps us to do other things better." -Sir Roger Gilbert Bannister
