Contrary to what the name might suggest, the race is not what you're thinking in terms of a steeplechase; the race route simply passes a bunch of churches. My race was fairly mundane as far as races go. That's not to say I didn't thoroughly enjoy myself; I just didn't have an epic battle for the finish tape that sometimes happens. I started in second, and I finished in second (although I think that if there had been another mile I would have fallen to third, but that's another story). In any case, I beat a guy that I've never beaten before, and I got beaten by a guy that I have beaten before, so I guess I broke even. Oh well; it was a well organized race, and a good time was had by all. |
