How did you and your friend get consecutive race/bib numbers? I am assuming because you registered together or picked up your race packets together? In the races I have done (about 30-40 total, all local to me), they determine race number by your last name (for pre-registrants).

If I can do it in less than 32 minutes, I will be happy with that. That medal is really cool. They aren't giving medals at the race I'm doing, but my kids are doing the 1k kids run and they get one, so they are super excited. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199434860797642670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-39518670939872221872012-03-12T11:15:15.537-04:002012-03-12T11:15:15.537-04:00Bought my granddaughter a new Barbie, it has pink ...Bought my granddaughter a new Barbie, it has pink streaks in her blonde hair.

I find that it slows me down because I get fearful of the fast pace. Or I just stress about not making a PR the whole way. Nice job your race! Big races are tough to PR, so double congrats.

Sorry about not saying 'hi', but I was SUPER nervous and (like you) when I saw everyone I freaked out more and got a little depressed knowing I wouldn't run very well dodging people. And at the time I didn't even know about the uneven bricks. It was tons of fun seeing everyone dressed up though. Did you see the potato?!
