Race: Jingle Bell Run/Walk
Distance: 5K
Time: 32:25
Finish: Overall: 598/1300+, Gender: 268/800+, Division: 28/98
Comments: I joined the Running Mate team for this race, and Wonder Woman and I each had both of our kids in our Phil & Ted's. It was so crowded it was nearly impossible to run (especially with a stroller). Walkers lined the entire way, sometimes spread across the route. At 30 minutes, my husband started calling me because he was afraid he'd missed me when I crossed the finish.
Lesson(s) Learned: Get as close to the front as you can, if you actually want to run at a large run/walk. My husband had been telling me this after my first 5K in October.
