May 28, 2009 Thursday On May 23rd, eight Seoul Flyers participated in the Queen Run which started at the World Cup Stadium Park with seven of us in the 10K and one running in the 5K. It was a great event as some of us had personal best times and Catalina came in 4th among all the women.

Dave and Marie (couple) both had their best 10K times ever. I was able to compete in a real race for the first time since last Fall Chuncheon Marathon. Although my time was not near my PR, I was happy to be able to compete and now look forward to reestablishing my times back a two, three years back.

The day started with quite a bit of rain while we waited for the race start, the rain stopped completely just prior to the race and then it was even hot by the time we all got done racing. You can see the group photo with the finishers' medals in the top left picture.

Our next planned group race is on July 5th, cut-off is June 20th, for the 6th GangByeon Marathon. Contact us to join the event.
