Polish Pickle 5K

 I ran the Polish Pickle 5K in Bremond this morning for the 27th straight year (no race in 2020).  I finished in 52:03, my slowest by far.  There were only 2 of us over 80 and I got 2nd place in that age group.  I never walk a step during a race, but am running awfully slow.  It was hot today, but it is always hot for the Polish Pickle.  Below is my history for this race:
