Reader advisory: Unlike much of what is 'reported' on this blog, the following is not fabricated. Just fyi. Kathy Crepas lost a close family member this past winter. He had been training for a half-marathon, and family members decided to pay their tributes by "finishing it for him." Not being a runner and not particularly liking running, she figured run camp was the best way to get through the training ordeal. She shared with us this note:
"You know why I'm running...it isn't something I would have chosen to do without persuasion. I was pretty focused on the goal of completing a half marathon but dreading the training process because I just don't enjoy running. Run Camp changed all that! Yesterday, while running my four miles I realized that I actually feel like a "runner". What a great feeling. So, thanks for creating an opportunity for me to meet the runners in my group, for giving me the tools to succeed (training guide, instruction in dynamic stretches and injury prevention), and for making the journey fun. It's so fun that I'm not only going to run a half marathon in Madison, WI at the end of May, I just registered for the Borgess run in April. Run Camp is simply amazing. Thanks!"
