"Walked" a 5K today

Here at work they put on a 5K run/walk. We even had to put on race numbers!

I can't run, but I can walk. And I'm a little bit competitive.

Finished the thing in 44:46, the first walker. It was fun, minus a blister on a toe.

A couple of joggers at the back of the pack made it interesting for me. I went back and forth with one, whom I drafted for a while on a wood-chip laden trail to catch another one. Ultimately they got away on the final stretch (on pavement) -- but they helped improve my time.
