Yellow Jacket Challenge

Andy has been in the Running Club at his school. They met after school on Tuesdays and Thursdays for 45 minutes. The culmination of their practice time was to run in our town's Yellow Jacket Challenge, a 5K road race. Andy had only ever run a 5K distance once before today's race.
The weather today was less than ideal, to say the least. It was snowing wet slushy slop.

Finish line!

9th place in his age group.
His time is almost the same as the time he got
when they ran a 5K in practice when they had nice weather.
