Building Connections
Patricia Vicary, ’79 and Sandra Hebson Hernbroth, ’79 found that you just can’t run away from Albion College!
Patricia Vicary, ’79 and Sandra Hebson Hernbroth, ’79 found an Albion Everywhere connection to last a lifetime:
The running coach’s smile quickly turned to a look of surprise. “You didn’t go to Albion College, did you?!” she exclaimed. Puzzled at first, I realized the Albion sweatshirt I’d worn to my Pleasanton, California gym had given me away.
As we compared stories on that day in the mid-2000s, Sandie Hebson Hernbroth and I discovered that, while our time at Albion in the 1970s had overlapped, we’d never actually met.
Since that day we’ve crossed paths countless times while I’m power walking around town and encounter Sandie while she leads her clients on training runs. Recently, that connection proved especially valuable to me. When I wrote a book about power walking, I knew just where to turn for some expert advice!
