Congratulations, Awood! You win the penguin trophy, for now. I am at the post race and just checking in by phone, but the time I saw on the clock as I passed was 26:02.
That's the gun time tho, what's your chip time? Great job btw!

I would have been pretty darn happy with a 26:02. I'm going to wait for chip time before I count my winnings. I could definitely see a rematch in the future. Great race either way.

This is freaking awesome! Congrats to both of you.
Running for TJ because he can't.
Thanks Zelanie! You rock! We will do this again. I think the difference in PR is about what it was when it started, but it's going the other way now. Let's keep this going. You're awesome.
Sloooow.
Congratulations to you both!
Fear is a Liar
Congrats on the PR! I can't imagine being a kid and seeing Santa hauled off in an ambulance.

Well, ok, maybe you didn't have clear skies and no wind. But I still bet you had a magic bean from a leprechaun!!
Seriously, nice race, and woo-hoo for your PR!!
When it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run. The only thing that matters is how we have loved.
That was a nice friendly challenge and you both rock! Congratulations, A_R, on your great race and PR!

Great race and nice PR but am I the only person who thinks the Santa story is the best part? That was awesome!

Congratulations on the shiny new PR!!!!!! You did great. Glad Santa Claus was okay. What an interesting story you have now. You sure have had a great year this year, and should be proud of your progress.
