White Lake Sprint Race Report

Marty had signed up for the White Lake Sprint, but since he has yet to run after hurting his foot in the Cary Duathlon I got to take his entry - not happy Marty is hurt but very happy I got to race :)We had high hopes of going to White Lake on Friday so we could watch the Half on Saturday, but we just couldn't make it happen.
