Race Results

The Dunedin Brewery 5k Oktobeerfest Run...


Kevin, Beth & Beryl


Kevin finished at 22:45
 

Beryl & I both finished at 38:??
(still waiting for the result to be published online)



Can you believe it?  Beryl & I did a great job.  Prior to race night, we had both only trained for a week or less.  We were averaging 45 minutes to go 3 miles....that is how we expected to run the race too.  But much to our surprise, we did much better and we didn't hurt ourselves!

On the other hand, Kevin was disappointed with his results.  He finished in the top 10 of his age group but he really wanted to win.  It's not easy being competitive!

It was a hot night, still 87 degrees at 8:30p when we headed home.  We sweated like pigs but replenished our fluids with free water and BEER afterwards.  I am not a beer drinker but I love the Dunedin Brewery Red Head Beer - you have to go try it!

The only sad news of the night was that Kevin was too hot in his new shirt I made him wear.  So before the race, he took it off and sat it on a pole.  Upon his return 22 minutes later, it was gone.  So someone has a high quality, attractive  t-shirt with the Tampa Bay Pet Sitters data on it!  If you see them, tell them to give it back!


Beryl flying through the finish line!

  1. Wow! That's impressive Princess Beff! And I didn't realize Kevin was a runner. Give that guy a pat on the back from me. Hope you two are hydrating today! ; )
