aramark and papa johns

tonight was the 5th annual 9-11 memorial race which is a nice little 5k where the turn for the last mile faces directly at where the plane hit the pentagon. it's a race geared towards firefighters, military, and cops with teams in each category. anyways, it's by far one of the best races not only because the course is neat, you get a nice long sleeve shirt (black this year), a nice 9-11 memorial medal, but you also get all this free aramark food (hamburgers/hot dogs), papa john's pizza, and beer at the end of the race. i ate very well after almost dying in the race. it's amazing how one can lose the ability to run so quickly. it was just a few months ago where i ran a 5k with no problem and today i felt like i was going to die. the official time will be fairly acceptable, a bit over 21 i think. Our work team, which had almost 20 members, will probably do worse than last years 10 member team though. i think i was the best we had this year, that's not good.
