That's it! From now on I am not going in races that let in those young whipper snapper 16 year olds!
They run too fast and win!!
Thank goodness for Age Group prizes and door prizes!
Yes there were some medals and some PBs too!
I don't know the exact times, so the actual runners will have to fill in the information. I don't even know my own actual time - will check when the results come out on Red Ball.
Petra came first in her AG with a 26-something
I came third in my AG with a 28-something
Cathy was not far behind me - like a minute or something
Susan Goebel had a PB in the 10K - it was 57 something - I think. Unfortunately she is in a very VERY competitive age group.
Diane and her daughter Alicia had a great first event in her comeback. It was wonderful to see Alicia out there supporting and encouraging her Mom. What a good daughter!
Cathy won a $50 Walmart GC for a door prize.
I won a bunch of bath stuff - all mango scented!
Alicia's karma got her a hat and a couple of GC for Pizza-Pizza
The t-shirts are really nice - black with blue & green writing on them
The goody bags were great - reusable cloth bags that were loaded up with gatorade, lip balm, key chains, Quaker stuff, that kind of thing
The food was great too -- people standing at the finish line with trays of oranges and bananas
Inside the cafeteria there was more oranges, bananas, timbits, coffee, granola bars, little mini rice cakes, yogurt, juices, gatorade -- more than you could ask for.
I am not sure why more people don't do this race. It is a good one. Thanks to all the people who organized it and volunteered at it!
This event gets better and better every year. They did much better with the results than in the past.
