Lafayette resident Tosha Schore and friend Mathiew Planquette from Paris just past the Reservoir Run finish line. Schore was a foreign exchange student back in 1990 and stayed in touch with her hosts in France - the Planquette family. Mathiew Planquette had existing travel plans to visit the states and participated in the run because, "I want to be involved in the culture." Mission accomplished: lots of kids and dogs, a jogging Gumby, balloons, and pancakes. Doesn't get more American than that. C. Tyson
