The foam in my beer mug was good. what George did not mention is that Joe carried me on his shoulders the whole run and then hurled me at the finish line as he rounded the corner… is the only reason we didn’t have the same time.

Congrats on your son's PR. Ha...whenever I see I'm not having a stellar race, I find a kid mid-race to encourage on the way in. It's a good way to still have a great race! Look at Snuggles!

Our whole family (kids, dawgs and daughters boyfriend do this every year). G finished 64th (19:52) and Big Joe right behind G (19:56) in 65th place. George did not make the top 101 and I could not find any little kid to beat up to take his mug. Ran mile one hard and was on "mug pace", but knew I would blow a gasket if I continued - so backed off and waited for 14 yr old son and paced him to new 5k PR for him (23:15) - won't be able to beat him next year. Sher - remember my daughter's Bijon - Snuggles?? Here is pic of Snuggles on the Shreveport times website!! (Snug ran the whole way)!! http://www.shreveporttimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/gallery?Site=D9&Date=20080704&Category=NEWS&ArtNo=807040801&Ref=PH&Params=Itemnr=40 Sher,

Thanks, Mel! Sorry to say my little appearance in the ER did keep me from racing this morning. But I haven't raced in a while...just run for fun and try to promote the races. G, just checked, results aren't in, yet. How did you, George and Joe do? Great plan, G and George!

Hope you feel better. Sher, it just shows you’re so “all that” that even an ER run doesn’t stop you from racing. Hope you feel better.
