  • Isabelinda Schieferle: Warm hugs to all of you who voted me in the Hall of Fame I am sooo deeply greatful. I know I haven't been around for the past nine months or so especially since having the baby (Aug 29th). So if any new runners that I have not met yet and still voted for me tanks once again and hope to meet you all soon. I had a great time at the banquet and it was great seeing all who attended. Wow I never thought five years ago that I'd even be around long enough to be a contender the the Hall of Fame. Time sure flies by when you are having the best time of your life!. If somebody in 2005 would have told me that within a span of five years I'd be running ultra runs, running in hurricane conditions when it should have been a regular summer storm, gaining a best friend, getting married to my best friend by Raven, then soon after having a baby and especially moving out of the Beach and into a Farm I'd think that person was crazy! The RavenRun sure is special :) 3 days ago
  • Everardo Torres Jr: Raven, Today (21 January 2012) so far it is the coldest day I have run here in King George Virginia. Temperature 32̊ F = 0̊ C with freezing rain. I did my normal routine of 1.5 miles. The caveat is that I did it barefoot, shorts, and a just two t-shirsts. Quite an experience. Cheers and best to you and all Raven runners. Major Taco 2 weeks ago
