I ran in my second race ever yesterday. I finished my first race in November at 33:26.

I was hadn't really trained too too hard last week because I sick and went to the race hoping to at least finish around the same time. I told myself...DO NOT WALK.

I didn't......

and I shaved off almost 5 minutes from my time!

I finished my 5K with a time of 28:58!!! :-D 9:15 splits!! I've never run that fast over a long period of time!

April 10th is my next race. It's 5 miles.... O_o
