Legs for Lindsey
Tomorrow night, I’ll being running with Hannah in the 3rd Annual Legs for Lindsey 5K in Evansburg State Park – Collegeville, PA.
The race is a fundraiser for the Sebastian Riding Association, a non-profit, therapeutic riding program located in Evansburg State Park, and it’s also an event to honor Lindsey Anne Hannebury who was one of the riders at Sebastian. For more information about the race click here. Maybe we’ll see you there.
Until the next post…

You might be wondering where the “Stretched” thing comes from. For starters, when I was in high school at Rancocas Valley Regional High School, I was short – 5’6″ to start my junior year. Since then, I’ve grown to almost 6’6″. Many of my friends started calling me Stretch.
On a more recent basis, I often feel “stretched” by all the things going on around me – career, marriage, parenting, church, running, reading, friendships, extended family, relationship with God, etc. (in no particular order). My hope is that this blog will provide an opportunity to express some of my “stretch marks” and to possibly hear your thoughts as well. 
So here is a bit more about me: I’m a Christ-follower, husband, dad, son, uncle, engineer, runner, chicken farmer, gardener, saxophone player, operations manager, adventurer, and the list goes on…. I’m extremely blessed to have the best wife in the whole world. We met at Grove City College. We were engaged on top of the Eiffel Tower. We got married in Greensburg, PA. Now, we live in Schwenksville, PA with our two incredible kids, and our black lab.

We’ll be thinking about you…. sure hope you can keep up with Hannah!!!!!!
We did it! Hannah did absolutely fantastic. She finished her first 5K in 33:42. I am very proud of her. We’re even starting to talk about our next race together (okay, maybe I’m doing more of the talking about it).
Overall, the race was great! There were over 310 finishers in the 5K, and I’d guess there were 50-60 runners in the 1 mile fun run. Channel 10 news even showed up to video the start of the race and to interview Lindsey’s mom.
