Marathon was great
Comments 0 | Recommend 0I want to express appreciation to Matt Wilson, Reggie Baker and the Crossroads Church for the hard work in pulling off the first Crossroads Marathon (and half marathon and 5K) Oct. 4.
Despite multiple challenges (can you say the Secret Service?), they put on a truly first-class run. Thanks to all the hundreds of giving volunteers who helped make the runs smooth. Their work made a difference!
In an age of increasing waistlines and decreasing workouts, the Crossroad Marathon represents a positive addition to the community calendar.
While I was not proud of my finishing time (think West Texas winds), I was overwhelmingly proud (for Odessa) of how the event played out. See ya in 2009!
