Run for the Arts 5k 32:34
July 18, 2009
It really is July in Minnesota but I headed out for the race this morning in running pants a tank top and a hooded sweatshirt over the top. BRRRRrrrr I think it was 62 degrees when I left the house at 7:30.
Kirk came up to run the race with me. It was his first 5k but I knew that he would run faster than I can. I looked at my Garmin several times in the first mile and we were maintaing about a 9 minute mile. Since there was no way I was going to be able to maintain that for 2 more miles I sent him on ahead. He finished about 4 mins ahead of me but came back to run the last 100 yard sprint with me. Thanks Kirk!
Probably one of the best parts of my day was an aquaintance of mine was there and I remembered earlier this year she was asking me how I had lost weight and complimenting me on how I was doing. I told her that I was running and she thought that she wanted to get back into that again. She told me that I was her inspiration! I can't believe how many times in the last year or so I have heard that. I still don't know how to respond when people say that. I think it actually makes me uncomfortable.http://http://faribault.com/news.php?viewStory=92809
