Fun little race in East Moline Illinois. Every thing is so green here. Trees absolutely every where. You would think with all those trees there would have been some shade during the race. Nope. It was hot. And humid. And hilly. Up and down and up and down. All of that took its toll and so I didn't make it in under 50 minutes. I also started too far back in the pack. I only had one person pass me the whole race because I started back with 10 minutes people and then passed all the nine minute people. I don't know how many people ran the 10K because there was a 5K at the same time and we all started together. My guess is 700-900. Somewhere in there. I raced in the Clydesdale division and came in 10th; 179th over all. I'm very happy with that. Now I've got a ton of miles to put in the rest of the week. I missed almost all of last week so I have to make sure I get all of them this week. There is a trail that runs along the Mississippi river that I'm excited to try. I've got a picture or two that I'll add later. I'll put up the splits then too.  How do you like my farmer tan?
