Thanks for the props...but I don't see beating you in the near future...maybe get closer though. Great design on the Hair of the Dog...but it shouldn't suprise me because of all the other great designs on the other races that I've seen of yours. Have a great year Steve and see you at the races! Charlie Congratulations on a fine run Steve!

Gerry was all about making the runner behind run the best he possibly could, and in doing so ran many great races himself. He always had a never say die attitude and in his own words "nothing is impossible". As for the age group award: yes they gave out Hair of the Dog medals to the top 3 in each age group/category. I just updated the post to briefly mention the medal/logo. Thanks for the comment! --Steve Thanks Corey,

Wow, first in your age group, & 8th overall. Must feel great to be keeping stride with 15 year olds! 8-) Love your "dog tag" souvenir from today's race. Very appropriate that there's a bulldog on it. ;-) Do you know if they're going to give you some sort of plaque or medal for finishing 1st in your age group? Based on the "dog tag" motif, maybe they'll be handing out dog bones to the top finishers?! ;-) Happy New Year! -Corey P.S. This race sounds like my kind of race. Like the idea of starting at 10 am. ;-) Enough time to recover from the previous night's festivities! Hi Steve,
