3 Pi Phis Race in Women's Health 10k

Three Honolulu Pi Phis entered the 39th annual Hawaii Pacific Health Women's 10k on March 6, 2016. While Cassie and Brenda have entered several races over the years, Gerry is one of 9 women who have participated in the race for all 39 years. She says she never expected this to happen way back in 1978.

If you think all it means is "I don't have a life on the first weekend in March, so enter the 10k" every year, not true - Gerry is making plans for the next 10 years of the race and she plans to outlast, outsmart, and be the Sole Survivor one day.
