Riding in car to race, packed in like sardines
Simulated running, I think.
A great time was had by all, as always. Weather was a little humid with wind against us, but in general it all felt good. The Matthews (Gwenda, Marc, Will, and Mary Rollins) walked, I believe for their first time. Wendy Johnson and her boyfriend Alan also came down from Lexington, Ky, and walked. The pairings were Isabelle and Mary Rollins, Lynda and Gwenda, Wendy and Alan, and Marc and Will. Bayne alone ran with the goal of breaking 50 minutes for the first time ever. This was done (47:28 chip time) and in fact was good enough for the (apparently) highly coveted "top 5% in your age group" award. This, by the way, is a coffee cup that says on it - "top 5% in age group". And a very good coffee cup it is, indeed. The highlight of post race activities was try to catch chick-fil-a cows being thrown into the crowd. Will garnered about 5, I believe. They are sort of like a small webkinz. Everyone who missed it should start planning for next years run. Oh, we all thought best costume we saw running out there this year was actually not a costume, but simply a tee-shirt that had on the back - "If you are reading this, you're not Kenyan". If you can't figure that one out, you need to come to the race next year.

Hah... MR and Isabelle have the same nose... and simulated running techniques! I also feel like we always have a squished back of car photo every year, which is a cute thing.
Oh, I wish that I had been there. Thanks for posting! Good job, Dad, on getting a new coffee mug!
