let Festus beat you?
Nice race yesterday! 2nd place at Lisa's Lung 5k. Congrats.
A tale of two runners.
Festus enjoying an afternoon stroll (with the first loser straggling his way into the frame...)
An alternate take on "enjoying" a run
Went out in sixth place, and unlike Run For All Ages just couldn't get any top end speed. Ran pretty steady, and had moved up to fourth at the two mile water stop. Picked off two more, but I knew there was no way in hell that Festus would let this old man beat him so I just held steady and held placement. Good cheeseburger and soup, lots of beers and best overall placement ever = pretty good afternoon.
Looks aren't everything. Very nice job!! I've already given Festus crap for not telling me that he was doing this race.
What was the course?
It is pretty much the same as the Super 5k or Thanks 4 Giving, with the start on the Boulevard. I do like it a little better than those others, because once you pass the water stop at about mile two it's a straight shot to the finish.
I work less than 1/2 mile from there up on the Blvd.
That's some good mile splits there. I got a lot of training to do to get to where you are right now.
