Weekend Race #2: 5-Mile Race

I ran yet another race on Sunday. It was the first 5-miler in the Road Race Series that I'm doing. I wasn't going into it with high expectations for myself, partly because I did a race the day before and partly because I drank a bottle of wine the night before. Bad decision. Anyway, I had never done a 5-mile race, so either way, it was going to be a PR.

With Mary before the race.

Suh-weet! Both my feet are in the air in a picture for once!

Nice course. Great weather. Looking forward to the next one in 2 weeks. Also thanks to my mom for coming out and cheering me on!

Stats:
5 miles in 44:47 (8:58 pace)
Age group: 25/72

Until the next race...

The picture of you & Mary has my car in the background! Too funny! But anyway - it was good to see you! :-) That's a great pic of you running, smile & all... my photos always look like I've been slapped with the ugly stick! Haha! I'll see you in 2 weeks!
