I went this morning with Jodi and her sister to the race. We did a little warm up and then I couldn't find Andy so I just hung out waiting for the race to start. I have not been running as much as I was at this time last year so I was a little worried about my time. I was hoping for anything under 55 minutes. When I crossed the finish line I forgot to stop my garmin so I am not positive on the time. But I was very happy with the time, not as good as last year but only a minute slower so not to much ground has been lost.
