Missouri Race Series 5k

Today was a very humid, Missouri Series 5k run.  Although humid, it was still a fun one!  
The course was pretty and mostly flat on the trail.  However, there were many times I thought "how long does this trail last?!"
While running by the lake was pretty, there wasn't as much shade in this part as there was on the trail so the blazing sun made it uncomfortable for this stretch.
But we all survived!
Standing on an incline really emphasized who is tallest and who is shortest in our group.  :)
We've all stepped up our running for October training so we went in ready.
But...you really just can't prepare for the humidity.
Not my best time but I managed to bring home third place in my age group.  We all received finishers medals and they are awesome.  I love that they are in the shape of the state of Missouri!  It was a very well organized run, a small group of runners, and they had pizza afterwards.  I mean, how can that be bad?  Of course any run with good friends is always a good time!
