Santa Jingle - 5k Race Report I almost forgot about this race already. Even though it was a good one. Everyone in the race was required to dress as Santa. Fortunately, the race director handed out Santa suits for everyone including hat, coat pants belt and beard! You can view it on you tube here 

1500 Santas running around town. What a site. The weather turned out a few degrees warmer than we thought it would be and we ended up feeling pretty warm in those suits!

Sarah, her friend Hailey and myself ran the 5k race in respectable times of 20:10 for the girls and 20:14 for me, lagging 4 seconds behind them!Sarah, her friend Hailey and myself ran the 5k race in respectable times of 20:10 for the girls and 20:14 for me, lagging 4 seconds behind them!

Mrs Daddyo and little Cam volunteered handing out timing chips and at the finish line.

Sarah finished 1st in her 15-20 age group with a time of 20:10 and 3rd female overall. (Hailey, her friend - finshed 4th female overall even though she was actually our pace bunny. I am sure she could have won this race if she went all out)

I was 2nd in the Masters age group (40 and over).

We both hoped to go under 20 yesterday but found it a bit of a task running in the suits!

Oh, that elusive sub 20 5K I thought I'd hit this year Sad
