A Beautiful day for a 5K!

This morning, Adam and Blake ran a 5K together. At the start of the race you can see Blake in the white t-shirt in the middle (the short one). Adam is there, but hard to see behind another runner.

Above is Adam in the last stretch, below is Blake.
Adam crossed the finish line in 26:03. He was the 7th runner in this male 30-39 division.



Blake crossed the finish line in 23:52 and was the 5th in his age group of males 19 and under. Those high schoolers sure do have long legs. He finished 31st out of all 200+ runners including all ages. Our runners had to stop and take a photo op after the run. The run was to raise funds for the State Fair grounds improvements. This is the sky ride. It was a perfect race day with temps around 65 degrees.

The first three finishers got ribbons, but since Blake missed that by 2 he got to pick lunch. He chose steak and broccoli at Lone Star.
