5th Annual Forest Park 4K XC Run

St. Louis, MO -- September, 11, 2010
(Results @ http://www.bigriverrunning.com/FPF_OPENwsplits.htm )

Rookie run for me on a XC course.  Rained heavily for two days prior to meet and the course a rainy, and soon to be muddy, mess.  Open division run first on a slate of 7 races that Saturday and the mud and water is flying everywhere on the first 250m of the course.  Run a solid race and finish 18th OA and second master's finisher behind 50 y/o phenom Dan Rooney.  Had a great time running on the grass and mud course.  XC racing is definitely challenging but alot of fun. 

Brandon runs later in the day and begins to establish his place as one of the top runners in MO high school ranks with a 7th place OA finish in the large school division.
