Over the weekend we lost a long time WMRCer and running partner. Jeff and Rachel had to put down Kopol. Kopal lived a wonderful 12 years. He was strong, friendly and a great runner. He had the best owners a dog could have. Just last year the 11 year old Kopol ran the rugged Cave Creek Trail Marathon. Check out the footage below and the Kopol Blog. RIP Kopol!!!Jody's Run 2010 from Jeff Jones on Vimeo.

Kopol, you will be missed! We will try to take care of your mom and dad and O dog. Mark, Katie, and Bluedog.
Yes, Kopol boy...you will definitely be missed. I will miss you whining, miss hearing Jeffy say, "Kopol back!" And most of all, I will miss hugging your sweet big head! Dang it, watching the video made me cry...just hit me. Watch over us Kopol boy!
Thanks everyone for the caring thoughts and words. Someone told me recently "people don't understand what our dogs mean to us." I disagree and the proof is in the compassion you all have shown.
JJ- Oscar and I send our best to you. Kopol was one great friend and one hell of a runner. We will all miss him.
