turkey trotter

This morning I ran another 5k. This was some type of thanksgiving day turkey trot in which the friends of the parks of wilmington benefited. I knocked about two minutes off of my time from my last 5k, finishing around 26:14. I only was passed by one person, right in the last part before the finish line. I think I finished 40th, I was given an index card with that number to fill out at the end of the race. I am not sure where I finished otherwise, I didn't think I did well enough to finish in the top two in my age group, and didn't really care to get any prize they wanted anyways. I'm sure the results will be posted online in a day or two, so I will double check then. The main thing was that I got another t-shirt, which is the best part about running local 5k's anyways. There was a pretty large crowd, the emcee said they had 159 pre register. I did get to see part of wilmington that I had never seen before. I never realized they had a park that close to the college. The worst part was when we ran by the duck pond. I had to be careful not to step in much duck shat.
