Race For The Arts

STC competed in yesterday's Race For The Arts--it's a 5K along the riverfront in West Sac that benefits Sacramento's arts community. Fun day, hot day, great day to celebrate all the talent we have in this region.

When I say that we "competed," what I really meant to say is that we tried running in the 90-degree heat and managed to jog impressively. Michele Hillen-Noufer, director of STC-2's Young Professionals Conservatory, ran the course in 30:22, while I struggled to finish in 32:28 (I justify trailing Michele by 2 minutes to the fact that she's run a number of New York City Marathons, she's 16 years younger and looks much better in running clothes. On the other hand, she gave birth to twins 10 months ago, so I really don't have any excuse.)
