LIFE BANK 10K, AUG 3RD

KEN FRANKENBERY

Did the Life Bank 10 K race Saturday held at Blossom Music Center.

Was shocked when I got there traffic was backed up like there was a Rolling Stones concert ( cars out in the street 4 deep)
They had a 5 K/ 10 K, and a 1 mile fun walk, to support  Life Bank & Organ donation. Must have been 4 thousand + people there ( all arriving at the same time!)
I went by myself, so got a solid warm up running from my car ( parked a mile away) to sign up, back to car to hide keys, and back to start ( 2 minutes before start time)
Race went well, won my age group- and finished 9th overall ( just under 200 doing 10 k- maybe 500 for 5 k) with a 40:39
Next year will ride my bike there ( and get there earlier!)
