“Running is not, as it often seems, only about what you did in your last race or about how many miles you ran last week. It is, in a much more important way, about community, about appreciating all the miles run by other runners, too.” -Richard O’Brien
The PAX of F3 NOLA trickled into City Park Wednesday evening to not only test the limits of our middle-aged chassis (minus the 20-somethings) but also support NOTC in their quest to promote running in the community. This was a good setting for us to get the word out about F3 and EH a few new guys. T-claps to the 16+ PAX for posting, even though it looked like it was going to be a washout. Luckily, it cleared up and the race went off as planned. T-claps to those who stayed behind to man the tent and churn our cups of Gatorade to the masses. Those that ran were greeted with the all so pleasant mugginess that is to be expected this time of year. Despite the heat and humidity, several PAX pushed hard and had great race times. T-claps to Cowbell, Rudy, Shorty, Roots, etc for taking the lead. T-claps to everyone for EHing after the race. The rain made the crowd a bit light but there were plenty of potential gloomers. YHC gets the vibe our numbers will continue to grow due to the PAX spreading the F3 love.
T-claps to Rudy for getting this pic and t-claps to Side Effects for building the cool sign:
Thanks to everyone who came out, contributed, or helped out. Hopefully we can do more events like these in the future. It was also good to meet some of the Ms and 2.0s.
See you in the gloom.
