Race Results
I have yet to see the official posting from the Jay’s Hope 5K that shows all of the finishers in order, so I have absolutely no idea how close I was to getting beat or how much I got blown out of the water, but at least I got my name in print!
Of course, this brings up a troubling trend. In my first official 5K, I finished first in my age group. In the Run4 Missions 5K this past spring, I finished second in my age group. Now third. Extrapolation says that by the time I’m 40, I’ll be “that guy” who is still jogging slowly long after the event is over. Sweet.

Look at it this way, That’s an easier goal to attain than first place. And someone always has to be “that guy”.
