FRW #4 for me.
You can’t have PR goals in a race this big (over 4000 runners) but I love to run this one anyway:
- It’s the ultimate women’s race!!
- Even with the crowds, you always bump into a familiar face.
- It’s a course that is used for many races (and ends with a downhill.)
- I may run into my idol ( Her b-day is a week after mine but I am 4 yrs older):

My bib # is 2984 (The 4th race in a row of 2 & 8). This year they are organizing the start of the race by colors according to estimated finish times. I don’t remember what I filled in (or if I filled it in) when I registered. I finished last year in 30:39. I finished this same course last October in 29:10. My last 5k finish was 27:54 so I should be BLUE but I may be a slower color.
My goal is to finish under 29 minutes. I realize that this may not be possible since I may be stuck in the middle of a slow moving crowd.
Maybe I’ll make the cover of the local newspaper again?






It is hard to PR at this race! Have fun and go for the sub-29 mins!

This is going to be such a fun race. I love women’s runs. They are more relaxed than when guys are involved.
Have fun!

Have fun. I did this twice and loved it but I need to show some restraint. If I come your way it will be for the other two.
I ran it with my idol the year I did it and then she gave a speech. Marla Runyan ran it too and won it and I had just read a biography of her. I was thrilled!
