MEMBER RECOGNITION

Longtime Columbine member and volunteer Angela Bruns was awarded the Carolyn Engleton Live the Way you Run award at the annual La Fete des Feet event. She was not able to attend the event, but shared this letter of gratitude for the members:

 

I am so very honored to have been chosen for this award. I am so bummed I wasn’t able to be there in person to celebrate with all of you, but I was soaking up the sun on a beach in Hawaii when I got the news, which is the next best place to be!

 

I can honestly say that I would not be a runner today if not for this group. I only started dabbling in running a year or so before I joined and found the group because I was looking for company on long training runs, as they were truly unbearable on my own. The Columbines are so much more than a women’s running group. The positivity, the support, and the friendship I have received over the past 12 years has kept me running and will keep me going for many years to come!

 

It means the world to me to have been recognized and honored by all of you wonderful, talented, and loving women. Thank you!!!!!!!
