Comments:

First time running with a pumpkin. I should have just run normal, because just getting a extra medal was not worth the trouble. It was fun and goofy though, so whatever. Everyone had fun.
What would you do differently?:

Not run with a pumpkin.

THE PUMPKIN!

Event comments:

This was put on very well for what it was. Certainly not meant for people to actually RACE, but I wanted to see what I had in me, and this was a nice first try. I think I used the pumpkin to take the pressure of my first 5K. It worked.
