    Barefoot 4th of July 10k Race Report
    By Thea Gavin    ​


    What a fun race! I turned 60 a couple of weeks before, so I got to compete as the youngest (instead of oldster vs. young 50-year-olds) in my group . . . and placed 2nd in women 60-69! Woo hoo!

    I also "dressed up" in my craziest red-white-and-blue running kit . . . I guess I'm old enough now not to care about looking silly?

    Here's a more complete report (with some of those previously mentioned "silly" photos) on my blog:

    Happy (silly!) Trails!
