Notes
There's a lot to say about this one. But this isn't going to be the place for it.
In short:
It was hot, sunny, and running on asphalt. Yuck.
This was a race for the Humane Society, and there were plenty of dogs running the race, too. I'm happy to say that while I did get girled (not that I care), I didn't get "dogged". I just missed an award, according to the dude managing the medal table. Oh, well.
I lost a bit of steam coming back into the park, but kept things rolling to the end. I'm happy with the results (not official yet, I forgot to stop my watch... too busy pushing for the line), especially considering the conditions.
