I sort of fell off the band wagon for a little while, ended up getting sick...but then, not sure how, I got well the day before I was to run a 5K. I wasn't sure I was going to do it or not, but my pastor and his family were going to run with me...and I really wanted to conquer this 5K thing. So I went. Early morning on labor day. I had run on Sunday for the first time in two weeks, so I was a little sore. My Sunday run was a little disappointing--2 minutes longer than my last run, but I figured that was par for the course for having 2 weeks off.
I expected to have a 40 minute run for the 5K. But when I came in, my time was 32:10! That's better than my best 3 mile run this year!!! I was SO thrilled! I came in last in my age group, but I was only 203 out of 247 total. I figure that's better than last place, plus it's a personal best! It made my 3-mile time about 31 minutes, which is my best since high school. Granted, I usually run hills and this course didn't have any...but I'll take it
