On March 31, 2018 I ran the Yearling race (3.65 miles) at Run the Bluegrass in Lexington to cross Kentucky (state number 46) off the list. My time was 1:00:21. Not too bad considering I was recovering from strep throat that the course was one of the hilliest (and also prettiest, that I had ever run), running through the scenic back roads near Kenneland Race Track in the Kentucky horse country.
