Bessie comes to stay!


This is Bessie, from Calgary, Alberta, by way of Tampa's Gasparilla Distance Classic. She (and her 2 identical sisters) was the award for the first female team-members at the Gasparilla races
(http://www.tampabayrun.com/exec/gasparilla/index.cfm?publicationID=309)
in February.

My very special friend Karen (recipient of BESSIE as her RACE AWARD!)has sent Bessie to ME as a secret Santa gift in our Penguin Athlete's group (penguinathletes) Christmas gift exchange!

Bessie is a very nice present!! By the way I look forward to see the pics of your race and....you are not slow, 1.03 is a good time and through a park is not so easy to run. Who knows if I ran in the same park when I visited Wa. dc in 1999?

I think that t-shirt colour rather suits her. And SHE looks way better in the hat than I did! I like how Bessie and Penguins are both black and white.

I know Bessie is VERY VERY VERY loved with you! Try not to spoil her rotten, eh?

If my little Bill is any indication, Bessie is gonna be WAY spoiled! Just the way it is...

I like all the pictures. It looks like you got a good amount of snow.
