Disneyland 1/2 Marathon Weekend Pt 4/6: 5K and 10K

Sean Astin ran both the 5K and 10K Disneyland races on Saturday August 31. It was not easy logistically! No sooner did he finish one race than he had to hustle back over to the Start line for the second. His time for the 5K (self-timed) was 28:17, 9:06 miles/minute pace, and his official time for the 10K was 57:55, 9:19 pace.

But first, the best photo of the weekend!
Sean leaps for joy on leaving Sleeping Beauty's Castle during the 10K.
