This was the third annual race that memorializes the life of Kelly Guffey, a vibrant 32-year-old who lost her battle with carcinoid cancer in 2006, with proceeds going towards a nursing scholarship in her name. I was excited about running this race. It was somewhat of a milestone for me, being my 25th race in [...]

Race #24 – Shamrock 4 Miler – Charlotte NC – 03/21/09
Posted by Richard Hefner on March 21st, 2009
Try as I may to avoid it, I still look like a ninja (an old one at that) when I dress for these cold weather races. Although it was the first race since the official beginning of spring, it was maybe 37 degrees at race time, which is not quite warm enough yet for me [...]

Race #23 – St. Patrick’s Day Shamrock Run 10k/5k – Asheville, NC – 03/14/09
Posted by Richard Hefner on March 14th, 2009
Oh… My… God… I think I’ve finally gone over to the other side. That place where the running fanatics get up early on Saturday morning and run no matter what. It was just a couple months ago I passed on the Grasshopper race in Gaffney because it was too cold. I’ve felt a little guilty [...]

Race #22 – Alston + Bird LLP Corporate Cup Half Marathon – Charlotte NC – 03/07/09
Posted by Richard Hefner on March 7th, 2009
The weather took a turn for the better this week, so I didn’t have to travel 400 miles to get warm. The 30th annual Alston + Bird LLP Corporate Cup Half Marathon started and finished at the Childress Klein YMCA, which to my surprise wasn’t one of those old buildings that smelled like my 8th [...]

Race #21 – Ortega River Run 5 Miler – Jacksonville FL – 02/28/09
Posted by Richard Hefner on March 1st, 2009
Friday was my birthday, so when Linda asked me what I wanted I was more than happy to announce that I had picked out a race 400 miles away for this Saturday in Jacksonville, Florida. After last week’s bone chiller in Asheville we were both ready for something a little less frosty. The forecast for [...]
