Ache Around the Lake

Here we are running in front of the Tea House up at Lake Lanier. Scarlette, whom I totally blame for getting me involved in yet another charity/work event is hiding behind me in the picture. Kind of ironic since she is the one who had the idea to put on a running race around our beloved lake. Last year was a huge learning curve for both of us - since at that point Scarlette had never even run in a race and I had certainly never been responsible for all the details to produce an event, but somehow we pulled it off and it was a success. This year we took our idea to the local hospital where we got lucky again and ran into 4 other women with can-do attitudes who thought we could raise a lot more money and take the race to another level. Their belief in our race has taken us to a whole new level this year. Scarlette and I were able to use our talents organizing while our new friends at the hospital showed us how raising money is done. The race is this coming weekend and as of now looks like it will be a big success. If you are reading this and have not signed up yet.... www.achearoundthelake.org
