Today's race

Here are some pics from this morning's race. I forget how to use HTML code to publish them here, so the links will have to suffice today.

My time was 26:02, which I wasn't super happy with because it was almost 10 seconds slower than my last 5k in March. However, this was a different course, and here's something that really bugged me. There was a 5k and a 1 mile "fun walk," and the "fun walk" and the 5k used the same last .5 mile, so for the last 4 minutes of the race I was literally zig-zagging between people who were walking, people who were walking slow, people who were walking even slower than the people who were walking slow, people who were stopped in the middle of the course, people with dogs, people with strollers, etc., etc. It was super annoying. I wish that I could blame my own slowness on them, but unfortunately maybe that cost me four or five seconds at the most. Well, hopefully next time I'll do better. Other than that, we are having a super weekend with Kyle's grandparents, and we are going to P.F. Chang's for dinner tonight. Mmmmmm. Have a great weekend everyone!
