Actually had a really good run. I started out going easy and then I thought "Actually feeling pretty good, go ahead and give it some gas." I was hoping for a better time, but considering I'd run six miles that morning, and biked all around Seattle that day, I did pretty well. I passed a LOT of people and was passed by only one person who passed me...on the last few hundred yards of the race. Oh well!

Did a lot of hill passing, which makes me feel good. I'd estimate there were probably 300-400 people so my rank of 94 isn't bad, although I think that's 94 among the women, not overall. Actual results should be up soon.

If I were being competitive or going for a personal best, I would not have run 6 miles that day, nor would I have ridden my bike so much. But I had an awesome run that morning, and a really great time biking with Roy, so I wouldn't change that. I might not take a nap since I felt groggy due to the napping. I'd like to do this race again next year.

Stretched out and grabbed a bagel and some juice for Roy and I. Went over to the finish line to cheer him in.


Late night, hills, lots of exercise during the day.


The course wasn't really "too hard" but I'd say a little harder than I'm used to on 5ks. It was challenging, but I enjoyed the challenge. Lots of volunteers and I enjoyed thanking them as I ran by. I always appreciate the people who are keeping me from getting squished as I do crazy things like run through the streets of Seattle at midnight. Lots of cheering from cars and passersby. That was fun.
