Today’s 5k wasn’t really a 5k – it was 2.9 miles. I was not running to beat my last time PR – I have 7 miles to run tomorrow. This course is VERY different – there are two pretty major hills – one is a killer. I was hoping to see how my time would be in a hilly 5k considering that the last race was FLAT. Well I ran my 2.9 miles in 25:33 – I was really happy with that. I felt like I was walking up the killer hill when in fact I was running – but I never stopped. Hey at least I placed 4th in my age group!
After my run, I enjoyed a Stonyfield Farm Blueberry yogurt and then treated myself to a Honey Dew Iced Tea – today’s was more like sugar with a little iced tea.
I thought the Homecoming Parade was at 10:30 – turns out it was at 11:30. I stopped by and said hello to Matt and then decided to come home to get a head start on my errands.
After a quick shower, I decided on some cereal for lunch. In the bowl went: kiwi, Quaker Oatmeal Squares, Grape Nuts, Cascadian Farm Multi Grain Squares, and Back to Nature Chocolate Granola. Plus some Rice Milk.
Time to get moving!

Great race! Good luck with the 7 miles today!
Be sure to tell the race director the course was short. Don’t just accept that. It’s easy – and very important – to correct it next time.
