Yesterday was the big 5K walk and run at the Rockport YMCA. My spin buds and I were asked to participate in the race. So I personally talked everyone into joining me in the run. It was a beautiful morning for the run. I of course was the first to arrive and made sure that every thing was ready for my crew. We were supposed to all meet at the Y but everyone, but yours truly, was late. Mary, Dede, Heidi and Michelle were all in attendance. As the race started I was thinking that I had better lay back and pick up everyone along the way, that is, if they were in any trouble. So I stayed in the back round and ran a very calculated race. I did not see any of the group after the start. They all took off like bats out of hell. I was so concerned about them that I couldn't put the legs in afterburner stage and fell way behind. When I did finish they were all there waiting for me. I guess I didn't have to worry about them as they all just took off at the start and ran a good race. I don't want to say that I ran a slow race but at the finish line I had to help them take in the timing tables and take down the finish line. Very humiliating.
And real big treat was that Evil was working the race. And if it wasn't for her expert pointing the right direction, well we would have all just run into the bay. Thank god she was there. Also her son Evil Jr. won in his age group. Congratulation to him.
