Dust Off Your Running Shoes

Haha. I got on here to say good luck with number 4 and it seems that I’m not alone in my thoughts.

Dates for 3 events have passed, does that mean 3 new trophies on the mantle?

So, how bout an update? How has the running been going since it’s almost officially summer now and there’s been plenty of time for keeping the dust off the shoes?
