Runner number 11650

The 10K race that I am in next Sunday says on its website something about 6000 runners - but I am number 11650 -- how does that work???

I think I'm ready - planning to run a 7:00 per K pace which should get me in at 1hour 10 minutes. I ran 9K last night at a 6:50 min pace according to Runkeeper so that leaves me a bit of space in case Runkeeper GPS is a little inaccurate. I will do a 5K easy run tomorrow and then another 5K at race pace 3 days before - then rest. I might have some wine later on Sunday night :)
