Race Review By Ken Frankenbery:

This was an awesome morning race started that started at sunrise.  Even though the race started early at 7 am it was already hot and humid with temps over 70 degrees.  The race was a great event , put on by a great organization.

Today was a break thru race for me. Not because it was my fastest ( My PR is 19:32) but I ran a solid race (21:05), placed well-( 6th overall out of 127, 1st Masters & 1st in my age group) and more important enjoyed being able to do something I love-compete. In the past I always was striving for a PR ( personal record), and comparing every race to my best -but at 65, I realize that I need to be the best I can be-not try to compete with a 40 year old me. So today was a new PR at age 65, and I am happy with a that.
