The Tough Turtle

Alec decided to run a 5K obstacle course run, The Tough Turtle! He helped set up the race course with his trail running class that he teaches through Cornell Outdoor Education (we love COE!), but he wasn't entered in the race. He got the OK to do it anyway from the coordinator, and then he won! Well he technically got 2nd, but he purposely got 2nd because he was worried about the implications of winning and not being entered! He did a great job and it was lots of fun to watch him run!
