I did a practice run last week in Fountain Hills..2.5 miles...Ran/jogged/powerwalked it in 45ish minutes...NOT to shabby considering in high school I ran the one mile in about the same amount of time!!! and the good news is I shouldn't be coming in LAST place since I checked the times for last years race and there were people that ran it in over an hour...SO PHEW!!!
