    5/5 - 6.2 Miles

    So on Friday I had a desire to run a race. I called my husband at work and told him to get in tthe proper mind set because we are running a race Saturday. It was our first road race. A nice 10K out in dutch country farmland. It was awesome! Me and my hubby crossed the finish line in 59:45.

    WOW - impressive to go below 1 hr and it is your FIRST!!! CONGRATS!!! (to both of you!).

    Thank you! It felt great! I signed us up for the Susan G. Komen Race for the cure next Sunday. My husbands mom died of cancer last month so we are doing it as a tribute to her on Mothers day.

    26.2 miles today, so 41.2 month to date. Ran the Vancouver Marathon this morning, what a great day for a race. Time was 3:50:52, which is a 27 min PR, so very pleased with the race.

    Congratulations!!!

    Nice Pace!

    PA Dutch country? Right up the road from me. I ran The Bird in Hand Half Marathon up there last fall.


    Yup. It's beautiful out there. Did the Turkey Hill Classic. Great job on your Time for the 5K. Impressive.

    Thanks!

    Yes, quite beautiful and sneaky hilly. :)

    3 slow mile today ... and had my LAST Physical Therapist appointment today for treatment of my achilles, still slightly sore but manageable with stretching and exercises - it is so much stronger compared to where I started! FINALLY, it is strong enough! I still have to be careful not to re-injure myself. Highest cause of an injury is previous injury!

    Is it too late to join? I was just thinking while I was out today that it would be great to run 100 miles this month. I'm a relative newbie to running, but would love to join the group. I am working toward my first half marathon August 5, a Super Spartan August 25, and a Tough Mudder Sept 8.

    Just in case:

    5/1 6.7mi
    5/2 3 mi
    5/3 9 mi
    5/4
    5/5 5.0mi
    5/6 6.7mi
    5/7
    5/8 6.7mi

    Total so far this month: 37.1
