I ran a little 10k race this morning that the women's aux. fireman put on. I wanted to break 36 min. (I haven't raced a 10k since 2001) There was virtually no competition, so I ran alone. The course was the loop by the Dixie Center. I felt comfortable running it because of some of the training that we have done there. Anyway, here's how it went:

mile 1-5:34

mile 2-5:46

mile 3-5:45

mile 4-6.06

mile 5-5:52

mile 6-5:38

The course was a touch short. My official time was 34:40.1

Nice job on the race and meeting your goal of breaking 36 minutes.

I can't believe you haven't run a 10K in that long. Your running is going amazing right now. Let's have a great summer!

Great job on the race. Even more impressive that you were all alone.
