First 5k of the year! I chose a new event, the Lehighton Officers Down 5k, which, among other causes, benefitted the Corporal Bryan Dickson Fund, in memory of a police officer who was killed locally in an ambush last year. 
I chose wisely. There was a DJ, a whole bunch of vendors, etc, and police from all over. As we started, all the cruisers lined up with their lights going as we ran past, and the fire truck had their ladder extended over us with a flag, too.
 You can just barely see the cruisers and fire truck in the distance. 
They sent the Honor Guard from Allentown, and they all stood at attention as we came up the final stretch of the race. 
This is them chilling before; I couldn't take a picture when they were at attention because I was busy trying not to die. 
The Bethlehem Mounted Police also came by. This horse tried to eat my hand but was polite enough to pose for a selfie with me.  Haaaaaaaaay.
There was also the arson dog, who was so excited he literally could not even.  Getting told off by his handler.
