Back on the track

After a long hiatus from racing, I finally put on some racing shoes tonight.  The first annual Gary Millen Memorial Mile took place at the Kennett High track at halftime of the opening football game (Kennett creamed John Stark) of the season.

My first order of business was to avoid injury.  Everything else was just about getting in four laps as best as I could.

When all was said and done, I managed a respectable 5:12 for 3rd place behind Kevin Tilton (new course record -- it was a mile on the track!) at 4:38, and Tim Livingston, at 4:47.  I was by myself the whole way but was successful at avoiding injury, so let's see how it goes from here!
