Shamrock’n 5K

I volunteered this morning for SABA at the Bike Valet for the annual Shamrock’n 5K. The half-marathon is tomorrow. The start/finish was at Raley Field.DSC00447
7:30 am start time, cold and windy, and I didn’t dress warmly enough.DSC00452
We only parked 12 bikes.DSC00455
The start:DSC00449
15 minutes later, the first runner turned the final corner for the finish line. At this point I was thinking I wouldn’t be cold that much longer, but it took the slowest in the field well over an hour to complete the 5K.

After helping to dismantle the bike parking apparatus, I got in my car and turned on the heated seat! Ahhhh.
