So my plan was tor run with Kim this Saturday. We had not run together is a very long time. We wanted to do 10 mile and then run my mom's ward 5K. I just wanted to run it with my mom but I found out after I got to her house that she wanted me to win the whole think...She thinks I am much faster than I really am. As we were laying out our clothes for the mornings run I discovered that I had forgot to pack my sports bra, At this point I found out I come from a family of comedians. They offered me Bandaids, a headband ear warmer, a 12 year old girls undershirt, and even told me to go with out as no one would notice. In the end I just ran with my normal bra and it was no big deal! Kim and I headed up the canyon for 6 miles into the wind it was very hard then 5 miles down hill. As you can see our 10 mile run turned into 11 because Kimmy and I can't do math and run at the same time. Because we ran an extra mile we arrived at the church just in time for a potty break and to start the race. Splits for the first 11: 9:32, 9:47, 9:41, 9:31, 9:54, 9:35, 8:53, 8:20, 8:49, 8:59, turned of watch for last mile early but .67 in 6:18 When we got to the 5K I could tell there were some fast boys but I thought I could beat all the women, but you never can tell by looking. Within the first .5 miles I had passed all the woman and a group of about 5 boys and 1 man were a head of me It was and out and back course. At the turn around the boys were about .25 a head of me and I was that far ahead of the next runner. My legs were tired I knew I was going to be the first woman and that there was no way I could catch the boys so I slowed a little and came in at 25:10 Splits: 8:26, 8:03, 8:10 Last two miles I ran out to meet my mom and then ran her in.
