6.2 miles~~Bodies in Motion 10K

It was storming last night and there was a chance of rain this morning.  Luckily, it held off for the race.  We got up early and made it to the WARF (Warrenton Aquatic and Recreation Facility) in plenty of time.  Chris had picked up our packets on Friday, so we didn't have to do that before the race.  This race was pretty small compared to some we've been to.  The worst part was turning on my iPod and finding out I forgot to charge it.  I had asked Chris the night before if he had charged his, but I didn't charge mine! Silly.

They held the children's race first, then the lined up the 5K and 10K racers together. We started together and ran in the neighborhoods around the WARF.  At one point, the 5K and 10K racers split off.  The number of people running the 10K was definitely fewer than the 5K racers! 

The most confusing thing about this race, was that we ran a couple of the roads more than one time.  Luckily they had people at most places telling us which way to go, but it was still confusing.  Once, I was asked "Is this the first or the second time you've seen me?"  I don't always pay attention while running, but luckily I was paying attention, and knew the answer!

I finished the race 67th out of 85 runners in the 10K.  I added 39 seconds to my last best time, but that is ok.  Another great race day.
