Another early morning TM run at home.  Hip felt better.  We have our ward 5k tomorrow.  I'm trying to decide if I should race it OR run in with my son.  I really don't like 5k's and haven't run one in several years.  But it would be nice to get some speed in.

I woke up my kids and headed over to the church for our annual rodeo.  There were 11 people at the 5k, so I thought I might have a chance of winning it this year....ha ha!  But they did change the course and we had to run up temple hill...ughh!

They shouted "go" and everyone took off.  A young man started off with a bolt up that darn hill.  But as soon as we turned the corner, he started to walk and I took off.  I enjoyed the downhill.  I was fearing the YM or Heather were going to be on my heels any minute, so I just kept going.  The last mile has some really ugly rollers.  I was totally in puke zone and was feeling frustrated when I passed the 3.1 mile and I will had a block and church parking lot to go.  

But I won and got in a good workout.  As soon as I got my pukes settled, I ran back and got my son.  He came in 4th overall and ran a wonderful race!!  GO Carter!!  My girls ran the 1K and Annie won, Georgia came in 3rd and I don't know about Abby.

Off to enjoy the rodeo!
