I just have to laugh at the message in the letter. If you can't read it, it says "Please find the enclosed prize for being first or second in your age group...." Really? They couldn't have printed 2 different versions of the letter - one to send to 1st and one to send to 2nd? Strange. Anyways, my "prize" is a gift certificate to Potomac Pizza. How much is on the card? I haven't a clue. But I'll find out one of these days when I venture over to Maryland to find out!

Race Bling
As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I placed 2nd in my age group at the Home Run 10k. Despite the chip timed race, they were unable to post results and/or determine age group awards at the race. So when I found out that I won an award, I was told that I'd receive it in the mail. Well, I finally did!

That's pretty funny - on many levels.
ReplyDeleteBtw, nice new header - like how you had your alter-ego printed on your bib.
Congrats on your award!
ReplyDeleteStrange they couldn't post results or give out awards at the race. I help out with my local races occasionally and part of my job enables timely results to happen. They must have had a major SNAFU.
