Talking Derby & Possibility 

As a Kentucky Derby Festival Marathon / miniMarathon ambassador it is my duty to keep y’all informed on all things Derby.

The most recent news is that KDF will be releasing the Throw Back shirt designs tomorrow; Thursday, January 28th! There is a limited number of shirts so purchase them as soon as you can!

Marathon / miniMarathon Update: The fees will increase on Monday, February 1st! Register now to save a few bucks and please select me or one of my fellow ambassadors as your ambassador to help you along the way! Don’t forget about the Norton Sports Health training guide and organized runs.

ALSO, the Kentucky Derby Festival unveiled one of the first signs of spring yesterday morning – the 2016 Pegasus Pin image.

This year’s pin design features the newly opened Abraham Lincoln Bridge and was released as part of a sponsorship announcement with RiverLink, the new all-electronic tolling system, making the Louisville-Southern Indiana Ohio River Bridges Project possible.

RiverLink is partnering with the 2016 Festival to help reach drivers, provide the information they need and answer their questions about how to travel the new bridges in the most affordable way possible.

How fantastic is that?

Growing our connectivity with Southern Indiana allows more opportunities for new businesses, connecting with more people, helping new and current causes; this list of positive aspects never ends!

I’m so in-love with Derby City where anything is possible.
