I did it!!
I finished my first ever race. The Forrest Spence 5k! (which benefits a great cause by the way, check it out) I'm not a fast runner by any means. More of a jogger actually. And seeing as how this was my first race and I wasn't really sure what to expect my goal was to finish under 35 minutes. And I did!!! 32:32 to be exact. Yay me!! My friend who is a girls cross country coach said that most beginning runners tend to come in around 36 minutes in their first 5ks. He was quite impressed with my time. Yay me (again)!! I was so excited after the race I was running on adrenaline and had such a high. Now however, I am ready to go to bed. Probably should have gone to bed earlier than 1:00 am for my 8:00 race. I got up at 6:30 to make sure that I woud be awake enough and to give myself time to eat a mini breakfast. Me with only 5 1/2 hours of sleep, no good. Now I am quite ready to crash. First though I need to go let out and feed the dog I am watching. Then sleep. Then study. Big exam on Monday. Ugh.
