I never like the kid's races. They always trip me up and laugh at me.....darn kids........even if they ARE cute, they are sore losers.

Great race report. Congratulations on the placement and the shoes. THAT made it even more fun.

Thanks for sharing

Ilene,

It's always fun to read your race reports. Congratulations on another fine result, even if you were under the weather. I won't get into your FUG ... er ... maybe I should rephrase that....

First place? Of course Ilene! Any race that's on Fashion Island is YOUR race! Congratulations on the 1st AG with shoes to boot! Another fun frolicking race report.. thanks!

Another race, another AG win. Wow! Do you have a streak going? And winning shoes, no less. How cool is that? You continue to run well beating up (figuratively, of course) on the competition.

Thanks too for another fun report which we all enjoyed. Hmm.. were you one of those students who got A's in composition?

Take care and hope you are able to get fully recovered very soon.

When I read that this was run on Fashion Island, I knew this was your race and it would be your day! Sorry about the detritus, but you are our one and only amazing Ilene.

Congratulations on the 1st award! Good going on the freebie shoes as well. I hope your stuffiness clears up soon. P.S. I can't decide whether or not to leave the FUG at home for my next race. Will I be faster without it?

Congrat's on a great race Ileneforward! I noticed you, Cashmason and SloJim were originally signed up for the race. I've been working miserable hours lately and had to work Sunday morning at 8:00 am! Those darn slave drivers! I was going to come in late and try and sneak out to Newport Beach since I like this course, but I knew I'd get slack for coming in a few hours late - otherwise, I was really going to try and do that race. I think we all did it last year, right? Then apparently SloJim and Cashmason weren't able to do it, so kukos to you for braving it alone. Did ya miss us???

I just started running again after the Pacific Shoreline incident and the horrific hour's I've been putting in at work the past few months... but each time I get a chance, I try and run my 5 mile loop course in anticipation of April's Jimmy Stewart Marathon relay. I don't want to disappont the team! So with that, I say looking forward to seeing you next month. Hope you feel better by then! I'm sure you will.
