2009 Crowley Brothers Memorial 10k

My first race!

The previous Monday, I had bragged to one co-workers that I had run more than 6 miles for the first time, actually running 6.2 miles.  He responded that I should run in the Crowley.  I asked him how long of a race it was, and he responded that it was a 10k.  I said, "gosh, I don't think I can run that far"!

Needless to say, I ran the Crowley, coming in at 50:58, and finishing in 54th overall.  Not bad for a first race.
