Yesterday was my first race of the year! I ran in our community running club race! Loop the Lake... I did the 5 mile run and set a new PR for me! YEA!
5 miles at a 8:46 pace! I was pretty excited about it! I am not used to running on concrete and more than half of the race was concrete! I got shin-splints at mile 2 and then they were off and on the rest of the race!!
Here is a recap of the race!
My GREAT supporters!! Love Them!
Danielle www.missredrunner.blogspot.com and me... I don't know what my hair is doing!
This is how we warm up!!! :o)
Take off!
John thought this was cute... a little boy finishing the race with his daddy!
I think this was starting lap two! You can't really tell, but this was a steady hill! :o(
Saying HI to my supporters!
Danielle coming in for the finish!!
YEA!!! Nearly done!
YEA!!! I was on the last stretch!!
We dressed a little TOO warm, but you never know in West Texas! It turned out to be an awesome day to run!
Danielle and I rocked it! So proud of both of us! :o)
Do you typically dress in layers???
Yes, but then I usually dress in too many causing me to get WAY to HOT!!
Hope everyone has a fantastic MoNdAy! I'm off to go cycling!!
You did AWESOME! And so did missredrunner :)
