12-12-12 12K!

Toledo Roadrunners club puts on some fun runs here in town.  This one was the 12-12-12 12K, starting at 12:12am!  I had not intended running this originally, until I got a msg from my dear friend Carol a day before the event.  I invited Jennifer to run, and she thought it sounded fun too.  So I zipped over to the mall, got us signed up and secured our commemorative glow in the dark event t-shirts.
 
Here is a shot of the Second Sole running shop where the run started and ended.
 Here are us dedicated runners, Jennifer, me, and Carol, just after midnight.  Yawn!
 Happy as clams right before the race started.  Brrrrr, it was really cold out.  I really miss not having the sun out!
 Right on time!
 This is the only "action" shot I got of us running.  Then my camera died because the battery drained quick in the cold.
We finished in 1:16, a new PR for all of us :)  We even ran into my old boss Kevin, who enjoyed the run with some of his friends.  Around 2am I got home, and crawled into bed.  That 6:50am alarm came too quick for me the next morning!
