Enjoyed a good race today. The Striders Winter Racing Circuit 10k. It was a rough week of training with a calf injury from last Saturday that I feel really blessed to have recovered so quickly from. I was able to race full speed. This is a very hilly course. I ran this race two years ago and averaged 7:24. This time I averaged 7:09. I ran the 5k two weeks ago and took 20th place and 2nd in my division. This time I took 23rd place and 2nd again in my division. There were about 450 runners. Then I went skiing with Lisa and the boys. It was a fabulous day in the powder. After that I went to the gym and did 4.4 more miles on the treadmill. The the family (with the fast forward button in hand) watched Social Networking. That's an amazing story. Day off tomorrow. |
