Ran this race with Callie. It was my first longer distance race since before COVID over two years ago and Callie's first post pregnancy race. We had a great time just running it relaxed and at a slower pace. The weather was somewhat humid and about 70 degrees. We had a great time running this race the second time together. Nothing better than running with your daughter! Love it! Love Life! and Love God!

8:44 Pace (negative splits and a fast finish)
