This morning I had the Judgesrun 5k. I started with a three fourths of a mile warm up. Then I went to the starting line to get a good spot so I could have a good start. There I met up with Scott, Cloyde, and Kelsey and we stretched. So the gun went off and I had a decent start. My first mile was roughly 6:45ish but I wasn't sure. The 2 mile mark was 14 minutes flat. By the 2.5 mile mark I was in 7th place overall and the next group was not too far ahead of me. But at the third to last up hill 5 people, including Scotts dad came up and passed me. It made me furious but since they had longer legs they could go up the hill faster than I could. When I saw the finish line I really started to pick it up and I managed to pass one of the people who passed me but right before the finish line he repassed me and it ticked me off a ton! But my goal for this race was to just medal, which I did. Its my first actual running medal that I have earned not including the ones I found in a tree or the complimentary ones you get for the longer races. Then after the awards and the complemantary breakfast they give you when you finish the race. I ran home which was about another three fourths of a mile to finish it out at roughly 4.6. I thought my time was pretty good taking into account that most of this race was up hill and it's the first race of the season. By the next few races I will be where I should be at this time in the year. Which is under 20 minutes always. But for today my time is good. |
