Featured Athlete for May 2013: Ron Argabright Sr.
This month's featured athlete is another one of the areas older runners, Ron Argabright Sr. He is turning 71 this week and still hungry as ever when it comes to running competition. What make Ron's story so great is that in 2012 he got a pace maker! After being allowed to resume running, he went to the track and pulled a calf muscle, and yet he has not thrown in the towel. Ron is the definition of persistence and serves as a great inspiration to the younger generation. Ron runs a lot of our Speedy Feet races and I often have to apologize. Our mistake. Our crew often picks the younger when dad runs the race. Ron, we hope to continue to see you at the races for years to come! The picture here is Ron finishing the Vandalia 5k last Wednesday night. |
