Runners rock the streets
Mick Jagger, Tina Turner and Robert Palmer were winners in the first Peace Day 5K run. Although it was not the real pop stars pounding the streets of Hamilton on Sunday morning, the runners in rock star-inspired costumes caught the eye of passer-bys and were justly rewarded for their efforts with prizes for the best fancy dress costumes at the end of the race.

All you need is… one man!
Bermuda’s L’Enfant Terrible, Tony Brannon might just be my hero. He’s certainly my example of the power of one. Take one man with a vision, a lot of nerve and the ability to galvanize Bermuda’s local talent, sponsors and volunteers while twisting the arms of international artists and you get an impresario with a lot of guts. I like his hair too. ..
