Wish me luck, C25Kk friends... I have my first race ever tomorrow morning! I'm really hoping to average under a 10 minute mile. I am very nervous and seeing my name on the long list of registered participants makes it very "real". I'm just hoping it will be less than 80 degrees!!

    I did it!!!
    Humidity was almost 90% so it was a tough run... But I got all the way though in 29:05 (and barely made the top 50% of overall runners... #509 out of about 1200)
