Jose Flores strained for the finish line, wearing his Boerne 5K Flag Run T-shirt and carrying a large flag on a wooden pole.
“This is the first time I’ve come out here,” Flores said after completing the 5K in 40:44 with the flag waving at his side. “My arms are going to feel it in the morning. I can feel it already, it’ll probably be worse tomorrow.”
