Holiday Hustle

Late this afternoon, I ran another 5K race - the "Holiday Hustle" in the small town of Dexter, a few miles west of us. As the race went off (late) a bit past 4:30, it had a very cozy sort of feeling, running and then finishing in the rapidly descending darkness. (Though, at 30 degrees, it was not TOO cozy.) My time (33:01) was relatively rancid, given that my 5K personal record is 29:14; I did the Turkey Trot 5K on Thanksgiving morning in 32:29, and felt THAT was bad; and I did the Holiday Hustle the last 2 years in 29:32 (2008) and 31:38 (2009). But at least I did it, and I guess that's what really counts.
