YES! I finally got to run the “new” Hangover Half 10K course ON New Year’s Day after 2 years of the race being postponed due to massive snow the night before or morning of. The weather was perfect, just a smidge of mud but no rushing river over the trail like in 2021. I got to do a few champagne “poppers” along the way – those things are LOUD! My favorite part of the day was running the last couple miles and finishing with my friend Leigh. I remembered my first time doing the Hangover when it had a 5K, and taking a photo with a stranger who was dressed up as the New Year baby, and I was a 1920s gent. (Her caption on the photo of us was “Adorable runner dressed in 1920s fashion.”) This time, Leigh was a flapper and I was the baby. We tried to sync up a mutual bottle pop at the finish. Good times all around!
