## Caption

For #throwbackthursday here’s a photo of me running in the 1981 @franklin_distance Varsity/Alumni race just after I’d graduated from @uwtrack .
•
I finished second that day to Ben Wheeler, who graduated with me in 1977 & ran for @yaletf_xc after Franklin.
•
Scott Bishop (L) & David Martin (R) are the two Franklin guys & for the life of me, I can’t remember who the fellow alum is without the shirt.
