3.54 mi, 38:51, 10:58 avg
1st part of the run was running around McKethan Lake before the meet started and a little bit after, then part two was a run back at my house with Stella.
Watched both Thomas and Jacob run for their schools in today's meet. Temperatures for the morning had finally dropped, so instead of over 80 degrees, it was right around 70 degrees.
Saw Thomas at the 1 mile point, coming through at about 5:08 and he was pretty far up near the front. Waited for Jacob and saw him come by about 6:35.
It's a two and a half loop course around the lake and there's a cut through over a bridge to get quickly to the two mile point. Thomas was still around his same place and had run about 5:25 for the second mile.
Rushed over to the finish chute and saw the leader come in a little under 16:00 (about 15:54 I think). Then number two, three, and I could see Tom's orange shoes first then he came by and crossed in 16:30.
Jacob also PR'd with 20:50.
It was great to see all the hardwork pay off.
Stuck around for awards then I went with Jenny and the boys to breakfast at the Florida Cracker restaurant in Brooksville. We were trying to meet up with Jacob, Aubrey, and his dad but they had to get Aubrey to her game althugh we caught them just as they were leaving and was able to get a picture of Andy, Tom, and Jacob.
Got back home and took Stella for a little over a mile run, to just past the gate and then back.
