# 103, The Gallup Gallop

Operation Jack Flyers, strategically left around the park.
Lining up at the start.

First lap around the park, she was 9th female.


3oth Anniversary of Huron River day, commemorative oar given to age group winners.

This is a fun 5k that celebrates Huron River Day in Ann Arbor. Asia has run it 5 or 6 times. The course is a combination of asphalt and wood chip covered trails. There are wooden bridges that can be slippery after a rain or in high humidity. The race starts a little late......9am....so it can be kinda warm out there! The course is twice around the park, so there are several places for Jerry and I to watch and cheer. Asia had a great run, with a time of 23:12. She was 2nd in her age group and 6th female overall. Instead of a medal, this year the age group winners got a small, hand-crafted wooden oar, in celebration of the 30th Anniversary of Huron River Day. Kinda cool, huh!!!
