The Cherry Blossom 10 miler went off with out a hitch this morning.  Some 12,000 or so runners plus associated friends and family, along with a huge contingent of volunteers (thank you!) descended upon the National Mall this morning.  The gun went off at 7:40a and the first bunch of runners were done 45 minutes later.  That is a break neck 4:36 pace!  While Lori and I didn’t go quiiiiite that fast we both got personal records (1:45 and 1:11, respectively) so that is a win in my book.
   
A good rite of spring indeed.
   
here are the photos I snapped mid run with my GoPro Digital Hero wrist camera.  They get strangely distorted but it is still fun to take photos mid race.
