Pinenut Festival Fun Run

Well after 9 days off, I went back to my home town, of about 1,000 people, and did The Annual Pinenut Festival Fun Run. There weren’t very many people there, so I was the first place overall woman. I outran some young whipper snappers, (who I’m sure don’t log the miles I do) which was good for me, since I’ve been taking a lot of flack about my age. LOL The man who won overall male was in the 50-59 age group, he ran it in 18 minutes. The top woman and male walkers were 50-59. Us old farts kicked but today.

I’m no speed demon, the fastest 5k I ever ran was 22 something, 7 years ago, so I’m happy with todays run. I took off 9 days to get over my cold, and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel. So far I feel good and hopefully I’ll be back on track, until my half, on the 5th.
