Becca and I chit chatted the entire race. Stopped at every water point. Went to the bathroom at mile 5.

Event comments:

This is a great race. Local HS running teams manned the water points - each had a theme and at the end of the race we were supposed to vote for our favorite water stop. That HS would receive a cash donation, which I thought was a good idea. I think my favorite was "Heaven" around mile 4/6.

I doubt I'll do this again. This is my 3rd time running that race and its just so so difficult! Plus the tshirts are not cute, nor do they ever fit me!
