 I walked down to the Excelsior Commons looking for the finish line for the Apple Days 5K. I had misread the Google Map. Typical. So with only a few minurtes t o spare I hurried to the finish line along the Laske Minnetonka Trail and I arrived just in time to catch the first finishers. It was 75 degrees and humid and it felt warm. It was the first running of the Apple Days 5K and I caught the runners at the very last 100 yards when they can see the finish line clock and give it a little gun at the end. I admit I was envioius.
