John Woodruff 5K in Connellsville

Ugh! Hills for about the first 1 1/2 miles! I haven't been running any hills. I thought I was going to die at the first mile mark. I ran the first mile in about 7 1/2 minutes, but finished the race over 25 minutes. A full 2 minutes slower than Friday's race. I am going to blame the puppy, Samantha, who kept me up all night. (or maybe the Sonic burger for lunch)

My wife, Rhonda, did well. She improved upon her last race.

The people running the event were awesome and special thanks to Bud Murphy's for the free post-run beer. Too busy to eat there. We ate at Goos in Mt. Pleasant. That place was fantastic. I can't believe I have never heard of it before. I am certainly going back there to eat again.
