My first race!! 5km 3 miles 44min

Getting ready to leave the hubby said I looked the part!
Up before the sun!

My lucky socks!! Thanks Patty

But I finished!!! 15 min miles but I DID IT!! It was so awesome!! It was a beautiful day and the run was a lot of fun. It was mostly up hill and it certainly kicked my ass but now I have a better idea of what to expect.
I should have listened to Patty and paid close attention to what I ate the day before.
Last night was the worst sleep EVER I woke up at 3am to vomit. I think it was more nerves and freaking myself out.
I was not dead last but I think I was in my division the results are not up yet but I will post them as soon as I see them also you'll get to see my sweaty self in the after race pictures.

Its so funny the way home all I could think was "Well that was not THAT bad"


Oh this is were I cried after the run. Partly because it was so beautiful, mostly because I could puke and no one would see me...

I AM SO PROUD MY CHEST IS ABOUT TO BURST! I think your time is awesome especially considering it was up hill! Make sure you put a picture of your shirt up for us to see. Oh, and I started doing this this year...Putting the name of the race and my time on the back of the bib number thingy. I have all of these numbers laying around and have no idea what race they are from. Of course you will probably want to frame this one as it is your first! I am so happy for you!!!!!
