Cherry Blossom 5K


No one said there would be hills.

96 runners in this small town race.  I was 94th.

96th was a 56 yr old male runner and he was only six seconds behind me.

Nice tech shirts, lots of post race amenities, friendly crowd, course is entirely asphalt, and there are HILLS.  

I ran with a good friend and we both felt this was an excellent workout and plan to do it again next year.  Awards are spread out in ten year increments which keeps many competitors away.  I enjoyed the smaller group AND the local festival two blocks away.  Lots of good food and music, rides for the kiddies at the Festival.  Ample parking for both events.

See ya next year!

GUN TIME:  49:13
RANK:  94/96
