Run the Ramps 5K

I ran the Run the Ramps 5K at Kyle Field in College Station this morning.  I am not sure how old this race is.  I first ran it in 1997 and today was my 14th time.  Since 1997, it has been put on by three different organizations at Texas A&M.  The course has been changed many times and while Kyle Field was being expanded, it was not held at all.  Currently, the course starts and finishes on the track.  It makes 3 trips up and down the ramps and circles the top walkway around the field 3 times.  It includes 2 sets of stairs on one side of the walkway.  I  finished in 47:21, about 3 minutes slower than last year.  They did not have age group awards, but I would have been 1 of 1 in the 80 and over age group.
