Dean Gerber wanted to thank his wife and sister, Judy Gerber and Linda Meyers, for supporting him during the Keys 100.  

Judy sent in an email shoutout for Dean as well.  Her email read, “I want to shout out my husband, Dean, who ran the Keys 100 ultramarathon this past weekend.  Not only doing it for himself but is partnering with a friend who is injured to help him finish as well.”  Way to go, Dean!  

For anyone who would like a shoutout on the show, please don’t forget to send them to us.  We do our best to collect weekly shoutouts, but please send them our way!  Please send them to [email protected] or call 941-677-2733!

This is a landmark episode number, and we are nearing our sixth anniversary of the show.  So, we wanted to introduce a new kind of episode in our feed, starting with episode 250 this week.  We are introducing Runcation Recaps.  These are episodes featuring members of the Runcation Nation telling us about a fantastic race weekend.  This allows everyone in our community to learn about amazing race weekends nationwide.

This week we welcome long-time patrons of our show, Dean and Judy Gerber.  They are joined by another patron of ours over on Buy Me A Coffee, who happens to be Dean’s sister, Linda Meyers.  Together they recap the 2023 Keys 100.  All of them were so gracious with their time.  It was so important to have them all here because, unlike a race with water stops, you have to provide your crew at this one.  There are laughs, inspirational moments, and all kinds of tips for this epic race weekend.

You can find Dean, Judy, and Linda here:

Linda:  @lindygmyers

More information about Dean’s new running project that he talked about in this episode is available at @florida_scrub_runner

No recap would be complete for the Runcation Nation without discussing exploring and indulging in local food and beverage.  Dean, Ju
