Marine Corps 10K October 26, 2008

Took at look at my blog site this morning and realized there's no posts since Nike 2008. Here's the first, from our "recovery walk" the following week at the Marine Corps Marathon. We started doing this three years ago, now have a number of other Nike veterans joining us. One of the best parts is that because we have race bibs, we can be in the finish area when the TNT folks we've been training with since May cross the finish line. This year's event had an extra added attraction in the person of Melony Gilbert, Naomi's assistant, who was doing her first-ever endurance event. So, instead of Naomi and I doing the 10K together, I took off with our friend John Phillips to try for a PR time, and Naomi joined Melony.

We both won! John and I both got a PR. Melony and Naomi had a great time, and Melony got her first medal presented by a handsome young Marine. Big fun.
