Athena, Dorothy, Alex, Sandra, Mike

It was sunny and 14 degrees.

The 15km loop course was on the road by the water, not too hilly and 1.5km downhill at the end.

Started and ended at big church.

It was first run on the mainland for me and Sandra Gregory.

The average 5km time of 23 minutes, the 10km split time of 46 minutes and breaking 70 minutes barrier own PB by more than 10 minutes!

Mike Meacher won his age division, Dorothy Gregory was 3rd in her age division.

Athena and Jamie was also running from PEI.

I finished in 1:09:19 in 47th out of 214 runners.

I ate spaghetti afterwards and award presentation with race organizer Sylvio Bourque then went to my grandmother.
