After years of missing this event for one (usually work-related) reason or another, I finally make it to this 5K race, held by the Chicago Volunteer Legal Services. It is an annual fundraiser event that raises money for those who cannot afford legal services. 

But, with my wife out of town this week, getting in any run of any distance was a real challenge. And this day would prove no different. I missed the start of the race by about 8 minutes per gun time. All the people that I was supposed to leisurely run this race with had already started without me, so I decided I would just give it a go and try to run this race hard.

I ended up passing all the people I was supposed to run with, at some point. And I ended up with a 5K PR of 21:33. Not bad, given the circumstances. 

Afterwards, there was lots of beer and food to be had. Although the course itself was way too congested to consider this a serious race, the cause was good and the beers were cold. The atmosphere was more like a weekend softball tournament than it was a race, but that was quite ok by me.

Thanks for watching. Leave a comment to let me know you stopped by!
