Stu's Country Mile 5K

For the 23rd straight year, I ran Stu's Country Mile 5K in Centerville, Texas.  The forecast was for thunderstorms, but it ended up being partly cloudy and not as hot as usual for the 4th of July.  I felt comfortable running and was somewhat surprised that my time was slower than usual.  This course is known to be a little long, but I finished in 43:37.  I was 2nd of 2 in the 70 and over age group.  After the race, me and all our other club members had breakfast at the Town Cafe, just off the square.  The breakfast at the Town Cafe after the race is also a 23 year old tradition.
