Collingswood will host the 9th annual Collingswood Book Festival next Saturday, and today it kicked off the week long prelude with the 3rd annual Collingswood Book Festival 5K. I ran it this morning and managed to win the whole thing, though once again I feel the need to add the disclaimer that there were only about thirty people in the entire race.
With a tiny turnout, it was a no frills race. A mere two laps around Knights Park and some apples and Philly soft pretzels at the finish. As the top overall finisher, I did snag the biggest trophy I've ever received in my life:
Stevie ran the race as well. It was the first race of her life and she managed to snag third place in her age/gender group. Congrats!
Congrats to both of you!!
