St. Patty's Day Virtual 10K Race Results

Thanks to everyone who played along. I had a lot of fun. And it was nice to have support between races. I'm already thinking of prize for the next virtual race. I may stick with duckies because they crack me up.

Me
I ran a nice easy10k on the Mississippi River levee on a gorgeous spring  day.
Distance: 10K Time:1:20:38
Hahahaha...This is not how I ran my race but it would have been funny if I did.
Actually, this outfit is a tribute to my dad who wears head to toe green for 
St. Patrick's Day no matter how many time we tell him that just one piece would suffice.

Christy
She walked a 5k with her husband, Dan, pushing their baby, Jack, and their sweet dog, Kaylee. That's multi tasking. Christy and Dan used to work with me but they moved back North to be near home and start a family. I'm so glad they decided to participate in my race!
Distance:5K Time:0:51:44


Stephanie
She and her friend, Kerri, ran their first 5k with Kerris' son, Aanon. How exciting!  I'm sure now they've caught the racing bug too.
Kerri: Distance: 5K Time: 0:32:42
Stephanie: Distance: 5K Time: 0:30:30



Andrea
Ran her 10k in the rain, wind and cold. You're tougher than me. :) She didn't take a pic because is was just to yuck outside. But she still put up a time to be proud of. Hopefully, spring will make it her way soon.
Distance: 10k Time:1:00:14



Ran her first 10k. Her LittleMan ran the 1mile too and LittleGirl ran the stick horse race. Everyone will be getting a duckie. I love that they were active as a family.
Distance: 10K Time:1:04:00



Ran the Kelly's Shamrock 5k and then ran an additional 5k. That's dedication plus the out fit is too cute.
Distance: 10k Time: 0:58:32



Lori
I love that she's smiling so big even after a run.
Distance: 6.4mi Time:1:10mins



Croughwell
She ran this race pushing her two kiddos in a stroller. That's a time to be proud of even without the kiddos.
Distance:10K Time: 1:02:08



Erica
Found time to run during nap time. Time management. That's what being a mom teaches you. Plus, I'm super impressed she got all four girls to nap at the same time.
Distance:10K Time:1:13:36



Nikki
Ran her 10k shaving 4mins off her previous PR! Unfortunatly, there's no pic because she couldn't find her camera battery and the cell phone pic attempt was "horrendous"!
Distance: 10k Time: 1:06:21


Darlene
Ran her first 10k! Great job! And in the cold with snow on the ground too!
Distance: 10K  Time: 1:17.36
