Grinch Lunch
The Grinch Lunch is the second stop on the Burque Brew Tour. This year, however, I chose not to drink any alcohol from November 28th, 2022 (the day after I turned sixty) until June 25th, the day I assume I'll finish Western States. So, I raced and socialized but didn't drink.
Similar to the Black Friday Turkey Trots, Piggy Style ran with me initially, barely breaking a sweat while I pushed fairly hard. Once again, I knew I was beat and so I ran fast enough to clinch second, but not painfully fast.
The weather was excellent, so people gathered together outside to relax in the sunny final day of the year. I got to catch up a bit with several of the Albuquerque Road Runners. I also had a chance to plug the upcoming Foothills Fat Ass runs and chat a little with the founders of that tradition.
My official time was 22:28.7.
