The Real ART of Running

Cruising into 1st Place

 

If you like classic cars (50s, 60s, 70s) or customized cars and trucks, you need to attend the Woodward Dream Cruise outside Detroit. .

And if you like to race a good, local 5k, you need to run the “Cruise in Shoes” that kicks off the Dream Cruise Saturday.

Today was the fifth annual Cruise in Shoes. I’ve run them all with a high time of 23:40 and a low of 23:28 for fourth place (they award medals to top 3). Today, I started strong and held on for a 23:20 which, to my surprise, led the 55-59 age group. So a 1st place medal, beating 48 other “old” guys in my group. 72 of 888 overall. No complaints.
