This is what happens when you do a 10k run through the forest in the dark, over loose rocks and low hanging branches and exposed tree-roots....and I wouldn't have it any other way. What I'm referring to of course is Los Chupacabras De La Noche. One of my favorite running events of the year. The weather this year actually cooperated(well, more so than last year) and the humidity couldnt have been more than 85%. I finished pretty well with a box score of 25th person in my age group(about 90 people in my bracket) 95th male and 118th person overall (out of 912 people who finished the race). Jennifer and Carol both did very well also and thankfully our whole team finished safely in one piece, although Jenn crashed at mile 2, I bit it at mile 3 and Carol decided to wait till she was within eye-sight of the finish line to take a header! After the run, Carol, Jen and I met Martin at Momaks restaurant for a post race Burger and beer. It was much needed. I can't wait till next year so we can do it all again.
