DPMR Kids: Caring for our Fur-Baby Running Companions

February 28, 2021 by Meggie Inouye Leave a Comment

This month I am taking a little different approach focusing on our four-legged family members. For many of us, our dogs are our fur-babies and beloved running companions.

Member Highlight – Kelly Barber

February 26, 2021 by Helen Pelster 1 Comment

It’s embarrassing that I don’t recall the first time I met Kelly Barber (see “What led you to join DPMR?”) But I clearly remember when I really met him, and I’m so grateful for the start of an enduring friendship with one of the most generous, fun, and geeky runners I know. As I was […]

January 30, 2021 by Jenelle Potvin 5 Comments

The DPMR family lost one of our own on Christmas Eve. Lucas Horan (39) was taken from this life far too soon and has left a deep void in our hearts and on the trails. We send our deepest condolences to Lucas’s family and loved ones in the wake of this devastating loss. Lucas embodied […]

I had planned to publish this post a month ago but took a break from writing because, like most parents, I was busy creating the magic of the holidays. It truly was a beautiful time even despite the weirdness of not being with our whole family.  I am finally finding time to sit down and […]

November 28, 2020 by admin Leave a Comment

October 26, 2020 by Meggie Inouye 1 Comment

November is the shoulder season… it’s too cold to enjoy the local lakes and the snow has not yet arrived. However, it’s a great time to get some runs in and day hikes with family. The shoulder season is also a time that many choose to get out of town looking for a bit warmer […]
