It was great fun to see the community enthusiasm at this event, including the highlight for me of a community band playing the theme song to "The Simpsons." Once again, I missed out on a Johnny's Donuts excursion after the race because Johnny's is closed on Sundays. A moment of inspiration occurred for me when I saw the elite mile runners streaking past before the main event started. 4:07 was the winning time for the mile! Here's a video of the race:

My quest to run a 45 minute 10K is getting closer. This was a tougher course than expected, with a good amount of hills on the course. Here are my race stats:
Time: 49:09
Pace: 7:55/M
Place: 75 out of 437 overall for 10K
Place: 14 out of 51 for age group (M 30 to 39)
