Post-race refueling time: (from left) Barefoot Josh, AC, Lori, Iris, Wayne.

MadMayosians and friends whipped themselves into a frenzy at the Beat the Heat 5K in Winston-Salem. Barefoot Josh imported his speedy runner/blogger pals AC and Wayne from the eastern part of the state. Wayne nabbed himself a cool mug for his speedy efforts. Lori and Iris also scorched the route, earning Iris a PR and Lori the title of Best Coach Ever. Also? Barfing and near-barfing was involved (and that was before the beer and pizza!), so you know it was a good time.
