    Default Naval Station Great Lakes run


    Wifey and I happened to be in Illinois and we ran the fort2base run again. We've done this every year since the inaugural run on 9/11/2011, except last year. We moved to Florida so being here this year for the event was a treat.

    I love this run. It's on a military training base. The very same one some of you may have attended. I know "G" did.

    There's always a military squad that runs in cadence too. Very emotional and motivational, with the color guards raising the flag, and the singing of the national anthem.

    Dang it! I just noticed my medal is about twice as big as Wifeys! They gave me the wrong medal. They should have given me the 3 nautical mile medal, not the 10 nautical mile one. I guess I must have looked like I ran the 10 mile race at the end, cause I was sure tired! lol
