Today was the last in the series!!! The weather was a little warmer and occasionally we had some sun which made it even warmer. Lots of the same people from the previous two races but the total number of runners was smaller. I had a good start and settled into my pace really easily today. I felt great up until mile 7. At mile 7 my knees really started to bother me and my legs really became tired. The last two miles were pretty difficult and similar to the last two miles of last weeks 16 mile run. When I got to the 9 mile mark I was so happy to only have .3 left. I felt really good about my time today, I was right on with "Sasha Science". In reflecting back over the series I am really glad that we signed up. It has given us a good idea of were we are at and what we need to work on to develop over the coming months. I really need to focus on longer runs and continue to build up my endurance for races like today and the half marathons and marathons. It has been great to see all the bloggers at every race and the FRB has been so well represented. Visiting and getting to spend time before and after the races is the best part! Happy Running!
