Road Race Series 5K 2

Alright.  2 down, 8 to go.  Next up is 5 miles. This second 5K was pretty disappointing.  Same course. Better temperatures, better shoes, felt better.  I was looking forward to this one because I was had trained better.  But it was slower.  Only by 40 seconds, but I'm still pretty upset by it. 



I don't know what went wrong.  :/  More training.  Hopefully my pace will be better for the 5 milers.

Road Warrior: RRS 5K 1

Alright.  No turning back.  The Road Warrior Series has commenced.  One 5K down.  It was slow, but that was to be expected.  I have been slacking on my training and the race was the first time I was allowed to exercise after having a tooth removed.  The course was relatively easy, rolling hills and a nice loop around Audubon Park.  I'm hoping for number 2, I will be better trained and have a faster time.

Here's my stat screen:


So 36:56.  Not my fastest, but pretty close to an average time.  In two weeks, I should be faster.  At least I'll be more trained.
I'm also going to save my weigh in for next week because my mom has been visiting, which means BBQ, IHOP and lots more delicious food that I just can't quite exercise off. Today's her last full day here, and we're going to go get me some new running shoes.  Yay!
