New 5k PR!


My half marathon training is coming along swimmingly (literally, as it was rainy during both of my runs on Saturday and Sunday). I was scheduled to run 3 miles on Saturday, so at the last minute I decided to enter the Harrigan’s Tavern 5K. I’m glad I did because I ended up running a PR of 26.07 (3 minutes off my last 5k race on NYE), coming in 6th place in my age group! It was also really nice to see some familiar faces I hadn’t seen in a while – a couple of girls I grew up with, with their husbands and children in tow, and a girl I went to high school with. Sunday I ran 7 miles, from my house to the Dayton Dragon’s baseball field in downtown Dayton and back. I felt really good and probably could have done more, but I’m saving my legs for dancing on St. Patrick’s Day Wednesday.
