The 5K Race

My friend Noel and I have been running over the summer, and we found a great race to run this past Saturday. Yes, the race for nerds, the PiMi (aka 3.14 miles)

Uh, yeah, that's snow in the picture! The race was up Provo Canyon and we were right in the middle of the first snow of the season.

There were about 100 people who raced that day, this is us at the start. The course went up Provo Canyon about 1.5 miles, then back again to the same place to finish. It was slightly uphill to start, then slightly downhill to finish... perfect!

Here's my big finish! I finished in 30:51. Not as good as my time last year, but hey, I didn't feel like throwing up at the end either! It was a nice run.

After the race, they had food and water for us, and some prizes. Noel won a free bucket of balls to a local golf course. All in all, a fun morning. And even better when we all went out to dinner to celebrate that night!

And this pic... this is what we woke up to this morning. It is just October 12, right? Ahhh!
