10K Results

The weather turned out to be nice; no rain, the sun was shining, and the temperature was probably around 10 or 11 Celsius.

I ended up running the race in 41mins and 57 seconds. Not my best time, but I'm not in as good shape as I was in the summer, and the hills in the Zoo really wore me out. But it felt good, I had fun, and it's the last race of the year for me.

They snapped a picture of me halfway through the race. Notice the selective placement of my race number. I'm #21. Also note the colour of my shoe laces ;)
