Down in Long Branch, NJ, Brad and I ran our first 5k since the Woodlawn one on Sept. 17th. Beautiful day, helpful volunteers, and high hopes. After partying like it was 1999 the entire day before, we still had a positive attitude and expected to do well. I was aiming for 26 minutes. Well, we crushed that, coming in at 23:56 according to the clock, and we didn't cross the start line for at least 15 seconds (which brings our time down even farther). I was the 4th costumed female to cross the finish line (I was a jester), and I also found out later that I came in 3rd in my division (20-29 year olds). Holy crap! I'm hoping that JSRC can send me my award since I couldn't stay for the ceremony due to Melissa's bridal shower. But awesome! 2 awards! I'm going to need a new room for trophies. Even cooler, Brad came in 6th in his division (we finished together, as per usual) which is major-league impressive, and we were 38 and 39th overall out of a field of over 300. Boo-ya!!!
Fingers Crossed; I know it's cheesy, but I want my 3rd place kudos!
