Spring is in the air, which means it's time to start collecting nominees for the 2020 Male and Female Runners of the Year, as well as for Volunteer of the Year.
Even though it was a COVID year and many races were cancelled, we had a lot of Godivans who continued to show up, day by day, week by week, and month by month to run and to support other runners. Whether it was virtual races, self-designed individual race attempts, or in-person events that were designed with great care to protect each other from COVID while bringing together runners (we’re talking the Raleigh Runaround here, folks), Godivans showed their resilience in finding ways to push themselves and to continue to serve the club and the running community in whatever way they could.
This year's Godiva Annual Pizza Party was an online get together on Tuesday evening, December 8th. We reviewed the happenings of this year unlike any other, introduced our new club Vice President Kevin Rumsey, and passed off the baton from Ariana Bevilacqua to our new president Susie Castellanos Hansley in an epic fashion. Susie compiled a video of past Godiva leaders from across our 45 year history all the way back to founders David Royle, the first Godiva president, and his friend and immediate successor Roland Rust. Above, David holds up a vintage Godiva singlet in the middle of his pass; view the entire video to see our him and the long line of presidents who've kept Godiva moving forward across five decades.
