2010 Runner of the Year

At my running club's annual banquet last night, I was honored to be named female Roman Runner of the Year.   Every time I think about the people on this board, I'm so inspired at how far we've all come.  We don't have to be first or fast.  We just have to get out there and try things that we once thought were impossible.   I am proud to be part of this online community and so grateful for my running family here in my own neighborhood.  We gather to socialize and just happen to run at the same time.  I love my life!

that is great cassie!  congrats, you really deserve it.  there are few people who work as hard as you (and somehow, which is beyond my understanding, you can do it in the cold, snow, and ice!).
Where are we going??  And why am I in this handbasket??

right now.  somewhere.  somebody is working harder than you.

Just 2010?  You have inspired so many of us.  Just saw a great quote, "We runners don't run to beat people, we run to meet people."  You definitely exemplify the runner's creed.
Thanks for sharing and look forward to your continued success.
