5/3 RiverBank Run 5-10-08

I had a wonderful run this morning at 8 am in Grand Rapids. All went great! I was concerned with my right knee; as it has been bothering me; so I was not sure what to expect after the gun went off. I was able to keep a steady pace from start to finish with no knee pain. Praise God! Thank you all for praying for me. I finished in 2 hour and 19 minutes. 6 minutes faster than last year:) I was able to run without ever walking. I even sprinted to finish off the race. I felt great! Next up is the 26.2 mile beast that will have its way with me I am sure. But, I will take one step at a time. Laura and I will be up in Traverse City on May 24 where I will take on my first Marathon. Here are some of my pics. from the River Bank Run. Take care.

Gotta stretch out good!



Pretty crowded in here :)



It's all over folks!!!!
