Spokane’s annual Bloomsday run has always been a much-hyped event, and residents of all ages have made it their tradition to join. Last May 3, about 42,000 participants ran and finished the race. While elite athletes and wheelchair racers were truly incredible to watch, the big crowds has always loved the unique “Bloomies”, such as those in interesting costumes. There were also a lot of runners who have been participating since their childhood, and some (called Perennials) have even finished all 39 Bloomsday runs. Even in their 50s, 60s, or 70s, these older runners were able to secure top places or finish the race in a little over the hour mark. Some ran with their families (including their grandkids!), while others had the time of their lives as the community cheered them on.
