WOOT!!! New 5k PR!!!  32:23 vs 33:33  

 

I was pleasantly surprised with my time since I had issues due to not being used to running in the cold (drippy nose, cough, teary eyes) and my legs quit the last half mile

So my weekend was slightly less than stellar.... I think I'm still recovering from moving my mom last weekend because ALL WEEK I've just been dragging! Saturday was my first group run as a mentor - nothing big, just 3 miles around the National Mall and it felt good to do a little kick with one of the mentees. Also quite an ego trip to be racing against a fit GUY for the last 200 yards! enlightened Today's run of 12 miles was a bit more painful than usual - I think I may not have eaten enough breakfast and not stretching out my calves enough. It's getting to my head a bit but gonna try to give myself some rest today and not psych myself out of my game. I only have 2 more weeks till that next Half and I really wanna PR!

Great PR! You'll be flirting with 30:00 soon enough!

I ran 6 miles on Sunday, took me just over an hour, felt okay. Already pretty nervous and shaky about the 1/2 on 3/17 and am sure it will get worse!
