What a perfect day for a run! I’m going to wait for my mind to digest the race and my calves to loosen up before I start recapping, but talk about a great time!

My goal was to beat last-year me, and I beat last year’s time by a little more than two minutes. Yee hoo! And considering my, ummm, lack of training, I’ll definitely take it. Here are this year's St. Malachi 5-mile results.

Congrats to everyone who ran St. Malachi this morning. Out of the eight (EIGHT!) people I originally had signed on for Malachi, I was the ONLY person who showed. How sad is that? EIGHT! And then there was one. There’s a reason I don’t trust anyone.

But I do trust my family to always be race-side for me. Thanks to my mom, Neil and Nino for cheering (and running with) me up that last hill. And then feeding me bratwurst. Yum!

Good job, G! You are working off of a very solid foundation. Expect a lot more pr's this year!

I wish I could have been there too. I definitely missed it! Maybe next year.

Awesome job G. Really sorry I couldn't make it, I just had to do my 20 miler this weekend and decided it was smarter for me to concentrate on it. So pumped for you that you smoked last years time.
