The annual Thanksgiving Day Race in downtown Cincinnati was November 27th, Thanksgiving morning. This is my third time doing the 10K (6.2 miles). I very much enjoy this race and the course b/c it goes thru downtown and New Port and over some of the bridges. Its pretty scenic which helps keep my mind off any pain! :) I went again with my brother and Brett (Alissa's brother) who are avid runners and try to beat their last years times of 30 and 40 minutes or something around that. Yikes! Im still trying to get under 60 minutes. If I wasn't sick for so long I think this could have been the year, but I hardly ran close to 4 miles even close to training for the race. But oh well I gave it my best, and thanks to nice weather and my ipod I got a time of 61 minutes. Not bad and beating my last year's time by a big minute! We didn't have Alissa with us this year to help take pictures so I took a few of myself while waiting in the warm car before the race. My phone camera seems to create a fun house effect so I think I look very strange with BIG googly eyes but it's something. Next year in under 60 minutes!!!
