March 5K

We had to scramble to find a 5K in March. The week before we had decided to blow off a Pi Day 5K. I was exhausted from having had a gig the night before, it was cold and rainy, and Valerie had a headache. With the days ticking away we had to find a replacement.

Fortunately it turned out that there was a 5K at nearby Nottingham Elementary School. We figured we'd do well in the standings, since everyone would be going slowly with their little elementary school kids. Wrong. Kids have a lot of energy.

On a hilly course, I ran a somewhat respectable 32:25. Valerie finished ahead of three other people. 

After the race we went out for breakfast at the Harrison Center where we bumped into the Yorktown High School girls softball team - including many former students who were excited to see their old math teachher, Mrs. A.
