Laura, this won't be the last time you are embarrassed of Dad!
This was my second attempt to run an organized race this year. As you may recall, I had to pull out of the Minnetonka Half Marathon due to injury. This morning I was able to run and finish without injury. Yeay!
The Blubber Run is more of a fun run than a competitive race. Sure, some are there to win. But this race inspires people to get together to have fun, dress in funny costumes, sprinkle in a 3 mile run, drink James Page beer at mile marker 2, listen to a live band, and drink more beer.
This morning was very humid and warm, unlike most September days. As you can see, I dressed up in a beer costume that I purchased 5 years ago and never thought I would wear again. I had two companions on this journey, Jeremy and Lindsay Ginter, who ran by my side throughout the race. We ran well, I had three little hiccups (calf cramps) along the way but they didn't slow us down too bad.

Congratulations, Mike!
Anyone running a 'beer race' dressed in a beer costume surely had to finish!!
Imagine if Laura was 13...
she may not have posed so cheerfully for photos!
Thanks for sharing -
