Today, I ran the St. Patrick's Day 8K in Washington, D.C. I came in 861st out of a total of 5,543 runners. I came in at 653rd out of 2,367 men. I came in 71st out of the 246 men in my age bracket (45-49). I finished the 8K (5 miles) in 39 minutes and 31 seconds, which works out to a 7 minute, 57 second per mile average. I was pretty happy with my result. It had been a while since I ran in a race and the 8K was a good distance for me. The weather was perfect and it was a fun race with bagpipe players around the course and adorable little girls doing jigs at the finish line. More pics to come.
