Week 3 of FBF Season - 5 miles plus 2

Shelley "Glowing" after Walk/Run


Gray Bob at the Seminar


This morning was Week 3 of the FBF season. The walk/run was 5 miles, but I was scheduled for 7. I got to the Velocity parking lot and walked around for 30 minutes with Peggy. I figured that counted for 1.5 miles. The Orange group took off at 6:35am. We went up Dulles, left on Lexington and into the Park. The first bridge was under water, so EVERYONE turned around, took Lexington to Dulles and then entered the Park by the creek. Instead of going in for .25 miles, I went in to the .5 mile marker to pick up my extra half mile. It was really humid and everyone was feeling it.
After the morning seminar we got to hear our Ironman participants' amazing stories about their Lake Placid experiences. Whether they finished or not, they all deserve a big congratulations for their efforts.
