I ran the Heroes Wear Blue 5K today but did not beat my 20:50 mark from my 9/11 5K because the run coordinators failed to properly mark the first turn and the lead group (myself included) wound up running nearly a quarter mile extra.
The silver lining is that I still beat my Run for the Fallen 5K time (23:30) by nearly twenty seconds (23:12). Regardless of the mistake, I still recognize that I have the luxury (and opportunity) of participating in these races because I'm inside the wire.
Cheers,
Ben
