Tray likes to call it this (as does Lee) but I think the official name has morphed into Fall Distance Festival. Linda took a few pix and fed us water and gatorade at the 10k split point.

This is my friend Andie.

And of course Jim.

This would be Lee and Tray. Lighten up, us!

Lee ran a measly 2 loops. Tray and Joe 3 (Joe and Lee finished simultaneously ... you do the arithmetic). Sherry saved Tray from dehydration w/ an A&W root beer in front or Marty's place. Joe talked to the winner who explained his coach's recommendation: run 1st 4 easy, middle 10 fast, last 4 easy. Joe asked "What's easy?" Winner said "6s." "Fast?" Winner: "5:20s." Not sure I have this exactly right but basically I am close.

Brent wanted to come but could not due to back problem. Missed him.

Lea did awesome.

The essentially out and back course has a decent hill. Pretty muggy conditions.

Acorn #2, done.

Wanda and Lee ran in the final Fun Run in Newington last nite. She placed and he got (what another friend described as) a "Cal Ripken" award for perfect attendance.

Lee finishing with Caroline Wawrzynowski. Her Mom, Susan, is behind us and her Dad, John, finished a long time ago. Her sister, Lisa, who usually runs, is returning from Iceland this weekend.
