First 5K In a Loooong Time.......

This was the first 5K in a long time for me. It was nice to get out and do it. I have been sick and dealing with migraines this week, but thought I'd run anyway because there were no refunds... Soooo off we went at 5am was wake up call.. the race started at 7:30am and I was finished within a half hour.

Girl Scout 5K! They gave us Thin Mints in our bag.. Ohhh yeah. but I really don't need the sweets. So into the freezer they go!

Deffinitly not my best time. ever. But after having a kid 6 months ago, being 22lbs over weight, sick all this week and my shoes being untied and coming off... I think over all it turned out just fine. I felt like a mess, and I think coach would have to agree if he had seen the race. I guess I spared myself some race comments and splits. :)

Speaking of splits, they didn't have the mile OR 2 mile marked! What kind of race was that? Any how here is how I fared:

6th in my age group with a time of 28:48.2 / 9:07 pace
Winner of the race- 33 year old with 18:51.1 /5:58 pace
