I have ran numerous 5k's. The funnest I think was the anywhere anytime race held in IF in January. You only know the day, they text you the time & you don't know the distance until you're done. Super fun! The other one was the cerebrun in PA. It was a 7-10 mile race with obstacle courses & the distance was determined on the path you took which was decided on your answer to crazy questions. I have ran 1 10k & got hurt 2 miles into my 2nd. I am finally back at it after a 6 months hiatus.
Short-Term Running Goals:
This year I want to do a race each month, building up to complete a few half marathons & at least one marathon in 2016.
Long-Term Running Goals:
My goal is to run as long as my body will tolerate it.
Personal:
I run to stay sane. I consider my runs my "me time". I am single & the mother of a furbaby who goes on my shorter runs with me, she can make it about 3 miles & she is spent. She's a great running partner.
Outside 36:21. I did under 10:30 miles until the last 1/2 mile I got the worst sideache I've ever had, I couldn't even jog through it, had to walk the last 1/2 mile. Any time I started to jog within 5 steps it would hit sharp :/
