LET FREEDOM RUN 5K
So this morning, I woke up feeling really good and hoped it would reflect in my run.
Oh, did it. :)
Gun Time: 31:26
Chip Time: 31:10
Pace: 10:02 (guys… I ran a 5K at a 10 minute mile pace… say what?!)
Place (women only): 265 / 685
Age Division (25-29): 45/96
I’m so freaking proud of myself. When I started running, I would put the treadmill on 6.0 mph (10 min mile) and I thought I was going to die… Today, I ran 3.1 miles at that pace. I’m BLOWN away. I always said, “I just want to run a 10 minute mile pace… I’d be so happy with that.” And while I’m ECSTATIC about that, I KNOW I can do better and push myself to go faster!
Next up… a sub 30 minute 5K! :) (well… actually a trail Five Miler… haha)
