We had a good turn out yesterday as we carried the torch to eradicate polio. We had representatives from all of the Rotary clubs in Washington County (I think) and we all had a good time. We were welcomed by the President of the Red Rock Club (name is escaping me) and then we all hit the track for the run/walk/meander/stroll depending on how you felt and how you were dressed. The obvious absence of super athlete/marathoner Shayne Wittwer was felt as we were looking for about 5 miles from him. Since the event was in his backyard we were sure he would be there. I think we had breakfast afterward, but this blogger had to leave after his 10 mile effort to go earn a paycheck. All in all it was a great morning for the event and we all felt good about the effort. By the way, Kaylnn Larson walks really fast.
