A 10k I wont forget

I ran a 10k this last weekend. I didn't have a lot of time to prep since I didn't have a babysitter until 10 minutes before I needed to leave. It was an all woman's race fundraiser for cancer research. It was a 5k/10k and only about 7 of us ran the 10k. It was fun but I was one of several racers who took a wrong turn and got lost. So I ran over a 10k and I don't know what my real time would have been but I got 71 minutes and something. I think I would have at least gotten under 70. My goal was 65 minutes and I have no idea if I was on track or not.

My hope was the race would prepare me a little for the upcoming half marathon. I'm getting nervous since I don't have a lot of time to run right now. I've been running on my treadmill but I really think the speed is off because I put it on a 12 min mile, which should be easy, but after just 5 minutes i feel like i"m going to die!

Weighed in today and I'm down another 2 lbs whoop whoop!!!

Its been so long

And my next half marathon is already on the calendar! I'm down 5 lbs since the first one and feeling really good. I've been teaching Zumba, taking a spin class and just starting swimming lessons in preparation for the triathlon in July so I really haven't had time to run a lot. Hopefully I will be able to pull this off.

On October 30th I turn 30 and I thought running a half marathon on that day would be a great way to ring in my 30's. Its a Halloween half Marathon in Utah. I think I'm going to dress up. It should be fun.
