Running Holbrook

We chased Topham and LTrain down Holbrook to the dead-end and came back. Some took an extra jaunt down Poplar Ridge. Mileage was about 5 miles.

There’s an African proverb that says, “if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”

In life, we never succeed alone. The only way humans have survived anything is working together. Find your people and challenge each other to achieve great things. You men are my people.
