The Big 10K!

The Crew: Post-Race

(Please forgive me for the several month delay in officially posting this... I wanted to make a few change, but at this point... I've given up... what you see is what you get.) ;)

Saturday (July 22nd?) was the First Annual RunSlim Rock N Run 10K (light on the "rock," heavy on the "run," as it turns out). Last I heard, 400 people were estimated to have run, and a group of six of us from work ran the race... I was the only "rookie." I think my finishing time was around 1 hour 5 minutes (a "rookie" mistake, as I learned... my coworkers were like "what?? you didn't look at your time when you crossed the finish line? you'll learn..." But, I wasn't really running it for the time, so... okay. David was the BEST. I could never have done it without his training advice and constant support, and seeing him waiting there cheering at the finish line really gave me the last boost I needed. He had brought Gatorade for all of us and had it there at the finish. More than one of us said, "This is the best Gatorade I've EVER had!!" It was a really memorable and wonderful experience.
