2nd Place
10k in 38:43
Racing and just running in general is getting interesting now half way through my pregnancy. I ran a slow warm up 2.5 miles with several stops....(which made me worry I would need to stop during the race, but I didn't!)
Going into this race I really wanted to be in the top 3, but you just never know who will show up for this race, so I just stayed positive and realistic on what is possible for me.
The race started and 10 girls shot out in front of me. I kept a consistent pace and worked my way up into 2nd place with just over a mile to go. I held it in second and finished strong. I felt great and was happy there were so many good runners to push me and make it fun! My Garmin had it measured at 6.27 AP 6:10.
Soon after I finished I ran back to find my husband and saw him kicking it in! Lots of family and friends around to make this a tradition I look forward to every year.
