Gunner Shaw 10k Vancouver

Hi there, I am new to the blogger world so here goes... I ran Gunner Shaw 10K race in Vancouver this morning at 11AM. It was race that was well attended. I had done this race before in 2008 with a time of 47:38. At the time , there was a short water hazard approximately calf deep which we all had to navigate through. It was a classic cross country race involving mud, grass, sand and of course water. Thius year the infamous water hazard had been removed due to the presence of ice. I finished the course today in 46:30 with a sprint finish at the end.
I met several familiar faces in LGRR members Leo Lam, Alex Lau and Linda Wong.
A quick stop to the Jericho Beach Sailing Club for some much needed post race refreshments in the form of bananas, oranges, hot coffee, soup and of course pizza from fresh slice. Then, I made the long drive back to my North Burnaby home for a shower and much needed rest.That's all for now.
