Chase Race


We went to the Chase Race which is a 5K where people can also run with their puppies. It is an event to celebrate the brief life of Donald Lee Chase Potter, 1991-2005. Jason runs with Chase's father at times on Saturday mornings. He and his wife searched for a way to perpetually continue the legacy of their 13-year old son who loved animals and suffered from traumatic brain injury. His parents, both runners, focused on a running event that could be partnered with pets. It is now a quality, fun and exciting annual event that occurs near March 12, the date of his death. The Chase Race and Paws promotes and raises funds for non-adopted pets and research for adolescents with traumatic brain injury.

JH thought it was so much fun to see all the different kinds of dogs! He would love to have one of his own...someday.
