AWESOME JOB SUZ!!! Soooo close to coming under that 1 hr mark!!!  Now you have a goal for next year! ;-)  I think you are unleashing your inner runner!!!!

Great tip for the rain/cold.....  while you are waiting for the race to start, "wear" a garbage bag.  You just make a hole for your head in the top of it, and it just keeps you nice and toasty and DRY.  When you are ready to run, you can just rip it off and toss it!!!  Even if it is not raining and just cold, this helps keep your body heat in. You wouldn't think it would make a huge difference but it does!!

Again, super nice job today!
