Yesterday we ran the Race For The Cure 5k. This was all thanks to Andrea...all the insistance on signing up, I finally did like 2 days before the race. I run on a treadmill and running outside is oh so different. Especially on sunday. It was super hot, rained and the humidity was off the chart. It was pretty miserable outside.
If the weather wasn't enough of an obstacle, almost as soon as the race started people shot out like crazy. One woman came from behind and cut me off almost making me fall because she clipped my right foot. Crazy people! Then, there was supposed to have been water at the 1 mile marker....oh no. The water was way father and for some reason the 2nd water stands were just around the corner from the 1st one. That didn't make sense.
All I wanted was to come in under 50min and I did. By my watch I did 35:35, but on the site it says I did 35:59. In any case, I accomplished my goal and even beat my treadmill time. As far as running other 5k's....not real sure about that :)
