Earth Day Race Recap- Loving Memory of Jim Briscoe

 

This episode is in loving memory of James "Jim" Briscoe. August 15, 1959 - April 28, 2023

 

Our running family is very important to us. The OMR team gathered together after Earth Day Trail Races to recap the event. It meant a lot to us to be able to have Jim Briscoe on our show. We recorded the Wednesday after Earth Day. Jim eloquently talks about his love for the running community and shares wise words from his heart. We were all heartbroken when Jim left us here on Earth a couple days after the show.

 

His wife Vivian is grateful we have his recorded words. She has listened to the show and wants it to be released. The show includes Michele Hartwig, Jeff Lenard, Jeff Goodmanson, Jim Briscoe, Nicki Wright, Sid Wegener, and Natalie Brunson sharing race stories. On the Ornery Mule Racing YouTube version of this show we play photos of Jim with all his friends and family. Our prayers go out to his spouse Vivian and all of Jim's family. Our 2024 Earth Day Trail Race will be dedicated to Jim. We are going to include one of his favorite sayings on the race shirt, and design the shirt in some of his favorite colors. We are doing this with the help of his wife Vivian who will be running the race.
