   Plus .5 mile walk. Besides the humidity affecting my bones, felt good. Solid fast 400m dash to top it off. Possible 6am run Monday ( if you're interested in joining us) to offset all these picnics!

   We weren't planning on running the 5k, but we missed the 1 mile fun run cut off. Cindy, Henry (in stroller,) Theo, and I ended finishing the 5k, and it was great. Mike R. came to run the 5k and kicked some ass. First place for men 40-49. Very impressive Mike, congrats again.
