It was the first time Rock had run a road race downtown since the 2010 Little Rock 5K, and he was surprised how good he felt as he ran the revival of the old Pepsi 10K, particularly considering his lack of training. He was well into the race and had managed to keep up with Zach, a relatively fast friend from the Little Rock Hash House Harriers.
With about two miles to go, they passed the house of a pretty Hasher named Stephanie. She told them she had refreshments and snacks inside. Years earlier Rock had a crush on her, though she was clearly disinterested. Rock had let it go with little more than a thought and now she refused to so much as acknowledge his presence. Consequently, Rock merely walked into her house, grabbed an energy bar and continued his race.
He felt very good and soon ran away from Zach.
