Running on the Big Island

I ran on Hilo from Tuesday 09/12/06 to Thursday noon 09/14/06. I ran through Hilo toward Honoka’a, about 13 miles. Then I ran from from Hilo to Kea’au about 8 miles (3 times), stopping for a cold drink at Verna’s Restaurant in Kea’au. Sat at the “talking bench” and discussed the state of our Nation with new friends. They don’t like our overdrawn National Credit Card (national debt) any more than I do. Finally, participated in a great debate at the historic Palace Theatre in Hilo. Great place. 13 tough questions and nice people attending.
