Day 1,953: 5 Que? race in Centennial Olympic Park

This was our second stroller run with baby Kiernan. The race started and ended in Centennial Olympic Park as part of the Fiesta Atlanta.

It was a small run of about 200 people. We started off along the park and did a loop around, ending up on Marietta and turning on Means Street, which is the turn for the final mile of the Publix Georgia Half Marathon.

Kiernan fussed a little bit about halfway into the race but settled down. Mom was pushing the stroller and we passed all kinds of people as we made our way to the finish line. I'm pretty sure we were the first stroller through the chutes (she placed 8th overall for women and I was 15th for men).

It was a nice bright day out and sort of an example of what's to come for summer races ahead.

Time: 9:30 a.m.
Temp: 75+ degrees
Gear: Technical T, short (Charles Harris 2009), shorts, Nike Air Pegasus+ 28.
