Race review by Gretchen Snyder.
The rain held out for my third black squirrel 5K race! 24:14 was a course record
for me. There were a lot of hills and I definitely felt the burn! The race was
well organized ,as always. At packet pick up, runners were given a single tech T-shirt.
However, the breakfast buffet following the race made up the difference. Food
provided included chili, juice, bananas, apples, oranges, yogurt and bagels.
Over 500 runners signed up and just under 500 actually ran. I placed 12th in
overall females, 2nd in my age group, and 40th overall. My GPS showed I
actually ran 3.2 miles.
