Now, on to running....
I did a 5k yesterday. It was an ok race. Not a PR but not a PW either. I over dressed, wearing a long sleeved shirt. Isn't it fall??? By the end I was pouring sweat and it got into my eyes which also reminded me why I normally run in a hat or visor. Next time....I won't make that mistake again.
My friend Sarah came out to cheer me on (and to enjoy the Autumn Fest festivities). It was fun to have a cheering squad and she snapped this amazing picture of me not even trying to pass the two slow pokes in front of me. I've pretty much decided that pace and time just doesn't matter. I am running for the love and fun of it.
Oh yeah...right at the finish. =) |
Our friend Andrea does original work on a 1902 letterpress making really awesome letterpress cards. She had a booth set up at the craft fair so we of course had to go support her. I got a few really cute cards. You can check out her stuff at chemistrycarddesigns.com.
Overall it was a really fun day filled with running, friends, and crafts. The worst part of the day was dropping my cell phone....Nothing like cracking your iPhone screen.
In all it was a fun-filled weekend that has left me ready to take on the week....hopefully it wont be another month before I update you all again!
Hooray! A blog post and a race to report on too! :) hope you are doing well, my friend!

Been too long since I've put up a post too ...but I must today! Have too much to say lol I've just been focused on running, life, the kid and meeting a new *ahem* friend. :-) even if its another month I'll still keep reading your blog heehee great race by the way!! I had my FIRST ever trail race Sunday. Wowza it was an experience. Hope you're doing good!!!
ReplyDeleteyou are right the running community is quite supportive and it is nice that they are like that. Specially when you are going through a hard moment.
