Garmin said I ran 6.15 in 55:22 PR for me YAY!:) Only the second 10k race I've ever run so I was trying to beat 58:01. My average pace was 9:00 according to garmin. Feel great about that.

The weather was perfect. It was cool at the start, we had goose bumps. I was with two of my sisters, a brother, his girlfriend, a niece and her friends. We all wore red or blue bandanas on our heads. That came in handy later cause I spotted my sisters on the switch back and we screamed and waved. Anyway, My brother and his girlfriend beat me and I couldn't believe it. I was talking smack to him cause he never runs, he cycles. He can barely walk but his heart is stronger than mine (cardio). Everyone else in the pack was behind me. We started out together of course but then...I wanted to get a PR:)

Beautiful run. Lots of shade. Fun to run in my hometown and on the parade route with people cheering you on.

Splits: Mile 9:56 Uphill on 9th East

8:29 down on university parkway

8:34 can't believe I'm running this fast (university)

8:59 still can't believe it (center st)

9:05 up toward state hospital and do a switch back. I see my brother and try to catch him. I pass this older lady because it's bugging me that she's been ahead of me this whole time.

9:03 up the hill again (9th east) I saved a little for this hill. I started passing people that had passed me. I saw this girl in a tutu that I'd been with and I wanted to pass her. Young, tan, skinny thing. I passed her on the this hill. Never caught my brother. He's amazing and will be very sore today.

8:24 last .15 mile and I ran as fast as I could but dang tutu girl passed me. oh well. I know I did the best I could and that's what matters. My family was there to cheer me on right before the finish.

I love running this race! So good to be back in shape after baby #5! I love running! I love running races! Off to Island Park now for family reunion! Happy 4th of July!

Hi! Just thought I'd meet a few new friends on here today and came across your blog. What a fun race! I love your thoughts about tutu girl! I always have names for the people I have a target on! : ) Sounds like you have had some great accomplishments with weight loss and running! Congratulations! Good luck on your training for TOU!

Thanks for the comment Kim. It's been fun training for this race and I'm excited to run it. The weight loss and running is hard work but so worth it.
