The race went great...got some before and after pics for you guys! We raised almost $1000 for the kids. My son (the organizer) ran his mile really fast. It was in the afternoon after I had done the 5k that morning. He told me that he was gonna "run for the kids who couldn't". I had to run beside him and he ran like somebody was chasin' him. I thought I was in elk hunting shape...nope. We all wore our modified Tradgang Tshirts. Thanks to everyone that helped!!!

Thanks again everyone! I tell ya, we had tons of folks ask about those shirts and I got to tell them about Tradgang. The lady that took our collections knew all about what it does yearly for St Jude    :notworthy:  

So, next year maybe I could recruit some of my brothers here to run and raise money in Elvisland...think about it. Bunch of arra slingers from Tradgang mixin' in with elite runners and raisin' a little money. Every pot of gumbo needs a little flavor  :)

One last pick of my elite runners...and once again I am proud to be a part of such fine folks as you!
