Ran the Ogden Parkway after work and it felt wonderful!! I had my first official chicking LOL About 1/4 a mile into my run I could see a guy ahead of me, he was going pretty slow so I knew I could pass him, as I got closer I kind-of felt bad, and almost didn't pass him, but I got over it LOL. There was another couple about 1 1/2 miles later, but they stopped and walk right as I got to them so I guess that is not an offical one :) Everything felt pretty good, had one potty stop and one quick streatch.

That's almost 3 5Ks back to back averaging 26:41. You should be able to run a 5 K race in under 24:00.

Sasha,

It would be great if I could run a 5K under 24:00. I think my PR is 24:10 and that was quite a few years ago on a very flat course. It will be fun to see if I have had improvements next year when I run the races that I usually run. Thanks for all your encouragement it always helps me.
