The parade run was everything I expected it to be. I was worried about parking, so I got there around 1630. I registered and got my chip. I was so glad Allison was an early bird too.
I wanted to do 2- 6:30miles. I started running and looked at my garmin “6:00 min/miles” too fast. You get caught up in the run. I settled into a nice 6:30 pace, trailing jack until the turn around. I slowed down a bit on the last mile. I was running a 6:49 when I looked.
I ended up finishing with a 13:25. I wanted to finish under 13:30, so I was happy. This was by far my fastest time. I think I ran a 13:50 the last time I ran this race. I won 1st in my age group!
After the race I enjoyed a few import beers. Just what I needed. Congrats to all the winners, especially to Allison! You go girl!
