Bronze medalist in female 50-54 in my 2nd 5k
Now, don't be too excited because it may well have been there were only three of us. I won't know until official results are posted online. But I did get a medal. I finished at 39:26 which was 30 seconds better than my first 5k done on July 3. So, I"m pretty stoked.

Congrats! Gotta love when you earn a little bling and a PR!
The first year that I started running, I was so excited when I placed in my age group. Even though I came in last overall, it was the fastest race I had ran so far. Be proud of your bling!

It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.
