My 1st ever real trail run. Certainly my 1st 1/2 Marathon trail run…
…and I claim 3rd in my age group!
I’m pretty chuffed, completely unexpected, almost didn’t even check the standings before I left because I’m just not that fast and my time on this course was certainly not one of my faster (2:13:24) but I guess with the terrain (OMG hills – made the Muskoka 1/2 Marathon course look flat) my 2:13 was fast enough. I wasn’t far off the mark for 2nd (4 minutes), but almost 30 minutes off the mark for 1st in my age group (age group winner was 5th overall).
So yea 🙂 Yay me! 🙂 My 1st podium!!! Hurray!!! 😛
Big ups to the folks who organize Brazen Racing – I’ve been in much larger events with poorer aide stations and poorer grab-bags and t-shirts. You guys do a great job. Super-big-ups to the volunteers! You guys were amazing. Thanks! Your cheering, hootin and hollerin make it so much more fun!
