I still remember my first year in RVA, living on Franklin St.
I still remember my first year in RVA, living on Franklin St. about 4 blocks from VCU campus – I was hung over as hell and it was the first time I’d had a city-wide running event ruin my Saturday morning.
Yes, it’s that time of year again, when Winter shifts to Spring, the trees begin to bloom, and a perfectly nice Saturday in March/April gets torn asunder by several thousand spirited people who care significantly more about themselves and others than I do about drinking on a Friday night.
Welcome back, Monument/Ukrops 10K, we didn’t know we missed you.
