i was worried about how hip would hold up since i haven't run in a month. but all was well. i took a few walk breaks which i always regret after i do, its only 3 miles for cricky sake! tried to stay with a lady in red but i felt she was going too slow in the beginning. WHEN WILL I LEARN??? i went too fast in the beginning, thus all the walk breaks (only 3)i should have stayed with her because she smoked past me and nora too for that matter!

not walk

celebrated the fact that my hip didn't hurt and my time which i thought was REALLY good...until they announced AFTER the race that it was only 2.8 miles. then i complained and got mad! but i think i still would have been under the 35 minute mark but that will have to wait to officially be checked off.


fear


it was a first race for this group. they need work but "A" for effort! started late, course advertised as 3.1 but told us after the final runner crossed the lion that it was only 2.8. snacks and drinks after were good but prizes and activities were waited for until after the 5K walk (or was it 2.8). they didn't start walking until the run finished and we waited for run results. will try it again next year.
