Well, I didn't win

I know. It is a shock. But I didn't win. I am feeling okay about it too! I came in first of my age group of all the people registered on my block, from my house. Or I am pretty sure I did, anyway.

The entire time of the race I kept wondering if I was going to finish, not in a panicky way, but just idly wondering if this last stroke or step would be my last. For the race or the last ever…

Two people commented on my argyle socks. Though I didn’t look at all of the participants feet, I did look at many, and I didn’t see any other argyle socks.
