MTC Shirt Run 1-26-08

It's simple. Show up and run 15 miles from Mangum, NC (in the middle of nowhere) to the Dog Pen near Ellerbe, NC (still in the middle of nowhere). Finish the run, no time limit, and you are a lifetime member of the Mangum Track Club. You can click here to visit the website of the Mangum Track Club and see more details.

Now we're underway

No reason to start too fast - or too hungry

There is a Mangum - Kris and Jim are right in the middle of downtown

Marc is moving too fast for the camera to catch

Christa and Kim are close behind

Sallie has a good lead on Darrell in her quest to become the next MTC canine member

Ron is showing off his "my feet really never leave the ground" running simulation

Mark and Joe have finished off the donuts, they're cruising now

A few of the faces from the Back of the Pack (where we have more time to enjoy the scenery)

Laura is moving up fast through the pack. She took all the great pictures at the Mangum sign,
then did her speed work to run ahead and take more pictures

A perfect morning to run

Refreshed and renewed by glazed creations, Joe cranks it back up

We pause a moment at the Memorial Site to Jeff's Shirt.
We understand this Shirt Run added a similar site for Jim's gloves

Alas, the Dirt Road is but a memory
