On Saturday, I completed a 5K and was thrilled to have posted a personal best time. I did this same race last year and, at that time, it was the first race I had ever done. That fact go me thinking as I was looking at the full results from this year and wondering how they compared to last year. So, I pulled them up side by side and was AMAZED!!!

2010 Result:
Time - 37:42
Overall Place - 333/398
Place in Gender - 210/329
Place in Age Group - 50/83
Pace - 12:10

2011 Result:
Time - 32:59
Overall Place - 227/342
Place in Gender - 141/290
Place in Age Group - 27/64
Pace - 10:38

I am really thrilled with my progress over the last year and cannot wait to see what next year brings...when I do the half marathon!!!
