Bill,

Great fun today!  27 participants.  We asked every family that was going to participate to donate $2 to the American Diabetes Association and my wife and I would match the $2 for each family.  I was hoping we'd get a $50 check off.  People were so generous.  My wife and I will be sending a total of $250 to American Diabetes Association!  Plus, I had 2 friends run the 3.5 mile trail that I can never get to come to 5K's with me. 

My mother walked with 2 of my cousins for almost 2 miles, my mother in law walked about a mile, and my father walked just about a mile.  All three were impressive.  I caught my wife, who was walking, on my return trip back on our loop and she even ran with me for about 400 meters.  I'm pretty sure she did that just to make me happy.  A great day for fitness and charity.

Thank you so much, Bill, for doing this.  I can assure you this will not be a one time event in our home town. 

Enjoy the pictures.  The little guy with me was our youngest "runner" at 4 years old.

Your pal,

Big Tone
