Sixty members gathered at Boxyard RTP to celebrate 50 years of Carolina Godiva Track Club by doing a commemorative run of 50 x 1 mile, with staggered starts over 50 minutes. Club Founder David Royle led off, followed by Roland Rust, another early leader of CGTC. The weather was ideal, birthday cake was plentiful, and a good time was had by all. Here's a 50 for 50 photo gallery, thanks to Patrick Gale.
