- My running partners. It's wonderful to have running partners that are great friends.
- I ran 4 races of marathon distance or longer. I enjoyed all those events, the good parts and the bad.
- The Afton Trail Run 50K. I ran this one by heart rate, and it took a long time, but I finished it. I had a great time and I'll run it again.
- The Fall 50 Relay in Door County. Five people and only 50 miles so we started in the morning and finished in the afternoon. All you can eat/drink pizza/beer after the race.
- The Fall 50 long sleeve cotton shirt. My favorite long sleeve shirt of the year. I wear it all the time while my Fargo and Twin Cities marathon shirts go unworn. My favorite short sleeve cotton shirt was from the Bear Water Run 10 mile race.
- The Afton 25/50K T-Shirt. Best short sleeve technical shirt of the year. Awesome design.
- I met my goal of running 2000 miles this year. Over 1000 more than last year.
