Race Recap By Nancy Wardell:

I ran the Franksgiving Day 5K in Canton yesterday and ran into teammate Brittany Kiehl in the after race hot dog line! This race was a lot bigger than I expected with over 1,000 runners and walkers of all ages!! It was very well organized and had raffles, hot dogs, chips, and sodas or a beer at the finish line! The award ceremony was fun as well with a bonus prize if your team (ketchup, mustard, or onion) averaged the fastest finishing time was granted a bonus sticker prize! I finished at a time of 29:01 and a pace of 9:21! I finished 13th out of 65 in my age group and 200 overall which I’m pretty happy with! It was a fun race and I saw tons of familiar friendly race friends there that I enjoyed spending the morning with!
