Running!!
Chris loves Glen almost as much as she loves running. Wait a minute. Strike that. Reverse it.
Her goal in 2011 is to do races that she has never done before. In February she did her first long relay - Cape 2 Gate, a 44-miler trek from Cape May to Margate - it was amazing! More relays are in her future! What races are you doing?
If you are looking for company or support at one of your races, give her a shout!

What about Glen and running, you ask?
Glen's MO with running is to pass on heavy duty training and just show up for races :) This no-training, only-racing style is rather unconventional but it works for him! Sometimes he even wins age group awards! For her part, Chris absolutely adores when they run together and looks forward to many more races with GD by her side - either as a fellow racer or the best spectator a gal could ask for.
