Sometimes things just make sense. That’s how this race went. I was tasked with pacing the 9:30 group for a new pacing group – Beast Pacing. For a 9:30 pace, my finish time needed to be 1:28:32. I came in at 1:28:26, 6 seconds to spare.
The course ran along the river, with 4 water stops throughout the race. Each of the stops had some sort of treat – marshmallows, chocolate chips, M&Ms… this did not sound appealing to me, but I’m the different one in that I do not enjoy chocolate.
The finisher’s medal was huge! And fun, a piece of chocolate with a bite taken out, and personalized to our city with the cherry and the spoon. The jacket was VERY nice, a little bit, but good quality. The finisher’s snacks were fun too! A nice bowl that got filled with chocolate fondue and some treats to dip in it – I skipped out on the chocolate part.
