It was rainy and gloomy today, and we started and ended right next to an old church in Winston-Salem, I think. This was St. Patrick’s Day weekend so everyone was wearing green shirts and beads. Tons of kids running this 5K here and plenty of casual runners. I did it with my running club from High Point University. I seem to remember winning an age group award, but that didn’t matter because I was beaten by someone running in the full Chick-fil-A cow costume. He/she beat me by a minute in the 10K (46 minutes!!), and it remains one of the most incredible things I’ve seen in 9 years of running. Those costumes are a heat stroke waiting to happen. This guy’s costume shoes were falling apart on the home stretch and he still kept grinding. Mad props to this mad cow.
