This still makes me laugh to this day. Brandon had brought a cowboy hat to wear during the race and a lot of people had funny hats. He even brought one of his old football helmets.

RDG’s Top 10 – #10 ’19’s Night Runs

It’s more that there were so many other moments that come in that I’d rank higher. It’s been a full 5 years of running and fundraising andContinue reading “RDG’s Top 10 – #10 ’19’s Night Runs”

Runners Doing Good to Again Run to Benefit NeighborLink Fort Wayne
