10K today!


I ran 6 miles today and I feel wonderful.

Today was the Fleet Feet Women's 5K and 10K races at Montrose Harbor. It's a really fun run - all women. (B loves this run so he can "sightsee" but I think he's actually a little intimidated by all the running women.) There's a lot more comradery and cheering than most races and that's pretty fun.

Last year I ran the 5K (3.1 mile) and this year I did the 10K, which was terrific. I ran the whole time (that's how I do things) and tried to take longer strides, stand up straight and zen out with my iPod shuffle. I ran 11:35 minute miles which is awesome for me and awesome to hold that pace for 6.2 miles. Hooray!

This is my fastest time yet! What's next?
