Race #4 - First 10K- Hell Yeah!

My resolution was one race a month of varying distances... so.... I ran my first 10K - 6 miles - Yes!  I signed up for the Manassas Runway 10K!  Key word.... RUNWAY!  I knew if I was going to try and run that far, I wanted it to be a flat, easy course.  There's not much flatter than a runway!  Gotta admit, pretty nervous...

But I did it!  59:43.  9:58/mile!!  I felt really good about it!  Yeah for me!  6 miles, I can't believe I ran 6 freaking miles!

First Trail Run - Race #3

Race #3 in the bag.  My first Trail Run 5K.  I liked it and I didn't.  It certainly wasn't boring, there were half a dozen times I almost fell on my face, including once almost directly in front of a photographer, but I managed to stay on my feet.

I liked the trail run because it was not boring... I had to stay on my game the whole time.  But at the same time, it was challenging.  My time was 39:40.  I guess that's okay.  I do like mixing it up and doing different races and different distances.  Next month I'm going to try a 10K!
