We discovered a great 40 year old 4th of July race in Denver's Washington Park. I ran pretty decently considering the late night at  Blake's wedding reception last night and other factors.

I convinced Blake and his Best Man from last night, Jake Lee, to join me and Andy. Cool that they both got up early the day after the wedding to join us. Jake even finished 3rd! Great entertainment and free apple pie and ice cream after.

Drove down to Castle Rock to visit my sister Jenny and her family for a few hours after and had a great visit. We are spending tonight in Eagle Colorado at the spiffy Best Western.

Nice race Rob. Always cool to discover and run in a local race when traveling. Sounds like you all had a really nice day in Colorado for the 4th.

Racing in Washington Park is a long-time staple in Denver.
