Looks like a great turnout.
Hope no one needs it.
Our grocery chain is very supportive.
Always need a T-shirt.
We know we are in the right place. My money is on 24.
The place to register. No, I’m not running today. Feel fortunate to make it from the car.
In case of an emergency, and to start the race with an airhorn.
Dan Moyer of Friends of the Park has a welcome message.
The starting line.
Tacos at the finish.
Mayor Tom Kilgore welcomes the runners and is the official starter.
The countdown to start is done.
And they are off.
The heron sculpture cheers the runners on.
The finish. Nineteen minutes.
While those guys are still running, it is time for us to have brunch and enjoy some music. I hope you all have a great week.

This 19-minute run was most likely good for the participants, but it was smart that the firefighters were there, in case. They are medical professionals if they’re like my son, the firefighter.

When I saw “going to see the Lakeway Wilderness Run” I was assuming you weren’t going to be participating. Thanks for clarifying that, John. I was a little worried that they might have a shorter loop for older people.
Skirt steak and eggs sounds pretty good.

They sounded good to me as well. Thanks, Dan. If I were to participate, they would need a day counter rather than a minute counter.

I keep saying it because it is true. What a great town you live in! I love the grocery store supplies the necessary for the participants and the t-shirts are actually affordable!
I’ll go for the shortrib Shakshuka and BonJovi is always a winner!
