Dear Mountain Milers! I *frankly* could not have asked for a better time in Prescott! The Friday Rick Tank hike was so much fun, with just beautiful views, and Groom Creek (while certainly a challenge from what I'm used to in the Midwest!) was an absolute blast! Thanks so much to the entire club - your hospitality and warm welcome was much appreciated! You've got a great city here in Prescott and I hope to be back! I'm trying to run a race in all 50 states and since I couldn't make the 10k this weekend, I'll be back in Arizona soon and would love to meet up again! I keep a little blog for my friends/family and included a post about the Mountain Milers - feel free to check it out at www.RaceFor50States.wordpress.com *Franks* again and have a *bunderful* day!
