Above is a group photo: a pre race photo shot. Coach is the blond in the aqua blue t-shirt with the big smile! I'm in the very back with the sunglasses (and gray hair). Little did we know what it would take today.
Here is all the cool race stuff. The shirt was an extra cost when you registered. I decided to go for it since it was my first race, the more money I committed, the more accountable I would need to be. It worked! My bib number was also randomly picked at the end for a prize and I picked up some very cool technical socks. They match the green of my race shirt. And if you were not sure I made it, here's proof!
OK, my official time was 41:01. I wasn't last for the whole group, I wasn't last for my age group and I ran the entire race. On a sad note, it was so humid yesterday, it stormed at 4:00 AM prior to the race, two women collapsed. One after the race and one during the race. One of the ladies was from our group. We send our thoughts and prayers and hope that it was just a mild case of dehydration.
Bev was sporting her new Wonder Woman bracelet. She is still smiling. Note: I won't let go of my Gatorade.
And here is final group shot (post race) with our wonderful Coach. She was always cracking us up.
Gwynne - you rock! Thank you!
