Beth gave me her t-shirt from the Running of the Reindeer. The back has reindeer prints all over it which I love and the sign that it is the 5th annual running. The front has a very aggressive looking reindeer running from the corner of 4th Ave. and G. Ray, Beth, and David ran in the group wave. They announced that they had over 2300 registered runners which went in 4 groups. The whole race was about six blocks long and ended with the reindeer going into a pen at the end of 4th Ave. They gave the runners about a 20 second head-start and then release the 10 reindeer. The reindeer bolted from one end of the street to the finish, dodging and darting between and around people, never touching a person. A couple of people fell from their costume getting tangled with their feet and the snow, but the reindeer did not cause any injuries. People ran in costumes or not. It was hilarious to watch.
