3:01:20
That's the short version. My son finished the 5K in about 43 minutes.
I'll post a full race report later. Tonight I need to knock out a Monterey Herald article, and then I'll be back here with all the details - hopefully by sometime tomorrow. Despite the time above, it was a really good day.

Congrats to your son (and you). Looking forward to the details...
Congrats to both of you! Tell your son way to go from your blogging buddies!
congrats to you on a great race, but you must be especially proud of your son right now! give us his race report, too :)
Very cool for your son.I really hope he had fun.
You were so darn close to your goal. I look forward to your analysis.
The time sounds like a PERFECT day on that course! I couldn't even imagine doing it at Big Sur! Congrats to you and your son!
Great job today!!!
It was a beautiful day!
And can I mention I'm so glad I trained on hills...there wasn't a flat spot to be found for first 26 miles of the race!
Way to go Donald for both you and your son. Can't wait for the article and the report.
3:01 at Big Sur. Excellent work. I too am looking forward to a race report from both you and your son.
3:01 is golden country...that's a dream race for me. congratulations, donald, and big congrats to your wee one for knocking out the 5k. he's got to be as pleased as you are proud.
Cool- you proved you don't HAVE to go sub-3, huh?
3:02 under terrible conditions at Napa and 3:01 up and down the hills at Big Sur? Wow. Efforts that far outshine many sub-3hr performances elsewhere. Be proud.
(and - next time you see me - just try to wipe the smile off of my face!)
On my way out of town, I realized I'd failed to wish you luck this weekend. Guess you didn't need it, given your outstanding time. I know that 1:20 might -- and I mean might, not should -- be bugging you because of your time goal. But Big Sur is a hard course. And your son finishing his first 5k is just wonderful.
I look forward to the race report - and congrats to you and your son!!! (will he write a report for us? :) )
