"It's very hard in the beginning to understand that the whole idea is not to beat the other runners. Eventually you learn that the competition is against the little voice inside you that wants you to quit."

Reese's Run
Reese's Run - the most rewarding run you will ever participate in! As a runner you are the "legs" for those with disabilities to assist them in reaching the finish line. I had the privilege of pushing 3 amazing kids, Bryan, Emylie, and Conductor Mike. This event was held at the Olympic Oval. Paul was my speedy push partner and we would switch off every 4 laps or so. By the time we were done, we had completed a half marathon with these 3 wonderful kids. I loved seeing the smiles, hearing the cheers, racking up the high 5's, and blowing our train whistles. What a GREAT race!! Proceeds from this run were donated to Team Kid Courage to purchase adaptive running strollers. I can't wait to be a part of the next Reese's Run! Thank you Jared Eborn and Extra Mile Racing for putting on an incredible event!
