Sheesh, there were some damn fast kids. I was really impressed by the number of kids aged 10-12 in front of me, those little buggers could run. I'm looking forward to running with my grandkids in a few years.
My daughter and her husband ran with me while grandma watched the grandson. It was cold and rainy but I still managed to finish in 25:26 and successfully defend my title (even if nobody else was aware). I'm no runner so my plan was to simply maintain a heart rate of 155 BPM; I averaged 156 and maxed at 168 chugging up a hill.
