2022: 200 miles!

Bemidji Blue Ox 5K

The sun was shining, but it was only 45 degrees. Of the 260 runners, I'm pretty sure I was the only one in short sleeves.

Here are some more stats:


I met a 74-year-old gentleman from Perham named Jerry who ran the 5K in 27:00 minutes! So now I have a new goal - to do the same when I'm 74...

Harvest Hustle

Yesterday was the Harvest Hustle put on by Riverview Outdoors and Recreation in Roseau. 

It was a beautiful day - mid-50s, partly cloudy. I came in 15th overall, second among the old men.
