What a fantastic weekend! The weather was perfect and the turnout of runners was amazing! There were people here from literally all around the country! We had Michigan runners from, Chelsea, Clinton, Stockbridge, Ann Arbor, Clayton, Manchester, Flatrock, Jackson, Ottawa Lake, etc., etc,!! There were even runners from Phoenix AZ, Denver CO, Baxter TN and Toledo OH. Wonderful people all supporting a good cause and having a fun time too.
A big thanks to Tonia Hawkins our Race Director. She works a full time job, is a full time soccer mom, is active in her church and still is able to manage a huge race with well over 200 participants! Fantastic job Tonia! She always adds something a little extra to make the race and walk special. She is already making plans for next years event. Each year her staff and those who give us feedback enable her to make next year’s race even more exciting. Next year’s race will be on Saturday, July 7, 2012 at 8:00 a.m. We already have some interactive type plans for those who will be doing the 2 mile walk. There is even talk about adding a Marathon and a Half Marathon.
As soon as all the bills are paid and the correct numbers are in, we will be publishing those results on this site. The race results are currently available on www.kenyadigit.org Race pictures should be on that site very soon too. Thanks again to all our sponsors and all the runners/walkers that have shown their love for the people of Kenya. May God bless you!
