Last Saturday’s Race and Today

Just goes to show you, goals don’t always get met. I finished the Danville Memorial T-Rail runs (5k) with a time of 33:13. My goal time was 31:00. It is a hard hilly 5k (and 12k). I just love this race because of the challenge it promises. I personally felt that I ran pretty good, it’s just that it’s a tough course. My disappointment came from the fact that I lost weight and my running has been improving, so I was expecting a better outcome. This is especially due to my finish time from the previous race. But, there were hills. Now, as for today (Monday 5-25), I ran a distance of 3.5 miles in 39:20 with an average pace of 11:2 per mile pace. That is not may best pace, which is around 8 to 9 minutes per mile pace. I have to say that regardless of the time, I really enjoyed today’s run. It was a warm but, nice day. I couldn’t pass it up.
