“You’re fast.”

Posted on June 9, 2020 by Christopher Cudworth

Posted on April 13, 2020 by Christopher Cudworth

A carnival of years gone by

Posted on June 20, 2019 by Christopher Cudworth

Years ago during a training trip out west in the Grand Tetons, our cross country team ran from Jenny Lake at 6000 feet up to Lake Solitude at 9000 feet and back down again. We did that run without water, … Continue reading →

Posted on July 5, 2018 by Christopher Cudworth

That’s me hanging out during our 4th of July family get-together yesterday. It was hot outside, as it should be on the 4th of July. Before the party started, I mowed a rectangle in our lawn in hopes of preparing … Continue reading →

You can’t run away from Crow’s Feet

Posted on November 2, 2017 by Christopher Cudworth

I like to smile. But when I do, the skin around my eyes crinkles into what people like to call Crow’s Feet. Those are the wrinkles radiating from the corners of your eyes. At some point, after years of smiling, … Continue reading →
