An Accidental Quasi 5K

Today I ran/walked in the Flemington Turkey Trot. The plan was to do the 2 mile Fun Run/Walk but it didn't quite turn out that way. This was my first Turkey Trot and first event of any kind where I had a number on my shirt. I arrived early and found a parking spot at the Court House and found the rest of Team Pro-Activity for a picture on the court house steps. Pro-Activity had over 150 runners in the event! After a potty stop and finding the alley for the 2 milers, we waited for all the 5K runners to head out and then it was (a slow) start to the run. I worked my way past the slow walkers and started running. I saw the first turn off for the 2 mile (which unfortunately some of the 5K'ers got sent down as well). After merging back in with the runners at about the 1 mile mark, somehow I completely missed the second turn off for the 2 mile run. After realizing that, I figured I'd just keep going since a) I felt pretty good and b) I'd feel pretty silly running backward thru the race. I managed to run about 2/3 of the race with fast walking in between. I figure the course I ran was about 3 miles and I did it in somewhere around 40 minutes. Here's the course map - I was supposed to take those pink lines - oh well - I made it and feel great.
