I want to thank the city of Everett Parks and Recreation Department and, in particular, Jane Lewis, for organizing and directing the Forest Park Hill Climb run/walk events this past summer. This ongoing series of run or walk (your choice) 30-minute races up and down the hills of Forest Park was held monthly on a Wednesday at noon between May and September.
Even for an old engineer like myself, the hill climbs were a great excuse to get out of the office for an hour, get some exercise, and explore some of the many trails in Forest Park. Proceeds went to help sponsor local youth events in Everett. I salute the city of Everett for organizing this imaginative event and I look forward to participating again in 2015.
