Faster than a Speeding Bullet!

Event: Pleasant Hill Firecracker 5K
Time: 38:47
Pace: 12:31

This was a "blistering" pace for me! I ran the same event last year and my official time was 45:41 with a pace of 14:42. Plus I ran the entire way this year versus runnning/walking last year. The first mile is always hard for me, but by the last mile, I really got a good breathing/running rythem going and actually could've run a couple more miles. What a difference one year makes. Maybe a 10 minute mile next year??

A few TNT'ers were also running---some ahead of me, and yes, there were some behind me. Of course, Lindsay and her dad blazed trails way ahead of me. This is a fun 5K because its in my 'hood, plus the little kids' 100 yard dash is cute to watch. It's great to see the kids out there running. Happy 4th Everyone!
