​​Spring is late, but we are finally running outside again! The 15th Annual Save Our Swinging Bridge 5K run & 2K Family Walk is scheduled for Sunday, April 15th at 10 a.m. and we are looking forward to another beautiful morning run/walk.  
​
For runners, the 5K race course is a challenging USAFT-sanctioned and certified 5K (3.1 mile) beginning in Topsham's Lower Village, immediately crossing into Brunswick's downtown, turning onto Mill Street running along the Androscoggin River, and then crossing the river at the historic Swinging Bridge. Once across the bridge runners traverse hills through the Topsham Heights Neighborhood and then back onto Summer Street to return to Topsham's Lower Village and the finish line (and food!).
​Sponsors of the 5K this year are: The Times Record (media sponsor), Bar Harbor Bank & Trust (banner sponsor), Mid Coast Hospital (2K Family Walk sponsor), WGME Radio 9 (radio sponsor), AAA (registration sponsor), Shaw’s Supermarket (refreshment sponsor), Priority Real Estate Group LLC, Crooker Construction and Welltree Tree Care Specialists are also major sponsors. Organizational sponsorship provided this and each year comes from the towns of Brunswick and Topsham.

​The early registration fees are $20 for adults and $15 for youths aged 17 and under. Proceeds go directly to the maintenance fund for the bridge. Past events helped restore the 126-year old Roebling-built bridge. Donations and continued support ensure the maintenance of the bridge far into the future.
​Prizes will be awarded to the top finishers three deep men and women overall. Each will receive awards—gift baskets containing merchandise and gift certificates from local businesses. First-place finishers within each age group for men and women will be awarded restaurant gift certificates. Placement certificates will be awarded to male and female finishers three deep to each age group category. Unclaimed prizes will be raffled off raceday.

Everything indeed is just "right around the corner" or "up for grabs". I don't know anymore how will some people try to make it sound like everything is readily attainable like it was some kind of destiny to be that easy. We all know this isn't true. Everything comes with a price. I really don't know how to explain this further but we all envy people with big houses and beautiful cars. We are not interested to hear about any discomfort they must have gone thru to attain those. They maybe very happy now, yes.
