No Sausages, but a great morning anyway!

First off, Tony's wasn't handing out sausages at the finish line. But I still loved my first race!

I think I finished quite well. I finished in 31:04. I was 81st out of 227 or more. I was hoping to be a minute less, but I am still very proud of my time. Also, I didn't throw up or even heave. When I finished I was able to get a cup of water and go back in time to see my Dad finish. His knee has been hurting, so he didn't push it too hard.

Then we both got some oranges and more water and waited for Mom and Tim to finish. We got to wave and yell to them when they came down the hill. I also saw them when I was nearing the finish line and they both waved and yelled good job to me. It was fun.

After the race we waited around to try and win door prizes. Mom won a gift card to Arby's, but no one else won anything. We waited until the end to see if Mom won an age group award, but she didn't. I bet she was close though. Hopefully all the results will be posted at www.ssprd.org very shortly. I just looked and they weren't up yet.

The race definitely made me want to do more!!! I have no idea how I can run 13 miles in October, but I am excited to try. I can't believe it is so soon!!! I gotta get to the training.

All in all it was a super fun morning and I love my tee shirt and I did get a coupon for a pound of FREE meatballs from Tony's....so that makes it totally worth the effort.
