Race Report: Lunenburg World Heritage Site 5k Road Race (a.k.a. the "Muffin Run")

I'll keep this short and sweet.

Good things:

- hanging out with my friend, Janet

- cool, dry weather

- scenery 

- 400+ happy runners

- fabulous volunteers

- 5000 muffins!!

- impressive runners of all ages (including one who was 81!!)

- a handsome souvenir tee-shirt

- big greasy post-race breakfast

Not so good things:

- running in old shoes because my new ones were still too wet to wear

- nausea throughout

- stopping 300 metres from the finish line to retch (nothing came up fortunately)

- my finish time (1 minute slower than this time last year!)

- an awards ceremony that went on a little too long

Overall, a great local race organized by terrific folks. Highly recommended.
