Congrats to Natalie D., the winner of our BCBSR giveaway! Natalie will take home a new running outfit—shirt, shorts, socks and shoes!—courtesy of Philadelphia Runner. Thanks to everyone who sent their BCBSR memoirs and photos in! I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed reading them and how inspiring it was to see so many other Philadelphians commit to a goal and nail it, despite the heat, the soar knees, and all the other bumps and blisters they incurred along the way!

Check out the BCBSR six-word memoirs and race-day photo slideshow here.
