Foot Locker

Saturday morning started early so we had time to circle back and catch the Foot Locker races at McAlpine. I cut my run short at 10 miles and then only caught the open and freshmen races before heading out. But it was cool to see so many people out racing on a great Saturday morning just days after Thanksgiving. I wish I could have stayed to see Alana's race. From the Facebook post, she appeared to have a solid race that earned a trip to the San Diego next month. Gotta love winning a trip to the warm weather of southern California in the winter time and getting a race thrown in for free. Good Luck to her as she prepares for it.

Also I have to give a "shout out" to see Steve. He raced NY marathon, Thunder Road Half marathon, Turkey Trot 8, and the Foot Locker 5 and ran them all with real good times. Staying healthy is worth just about anything.

Lastly but not the least, I have to give Jamaar a shout out. He was doing his long run Saturday morning, but thought enough of his fellow runners to bring presents. He handed out Peppermint Stick Gu courtesy of Run For Your Life. Thanks Jamaar for the "Gu" and bringing the holiday spirit out to our runs.
