Turkey Trottin' Well, I did
Well,
I did the 2002 Longmont Turkey Trot yesterday... my first 10K race
ever! I have run 10k's in training, on the treadmill, etc... but never
in an actual race, so I finally decided to take the plunge. Back in
college when I ran some, I only did 5k races, so this was sort of a big
goal -- since I've gotten back into running over the past few years, it
was nice to have it culminate into something.
You can click the image to see the results. I'm pretty happy, overall.
Of course the goal was to simply finish. Beyond that I wanted to run at
least around 48 minutes or so, so mission accomplished. I really
struggled in the middle miles... we ran on some dirt roads into a stiff
breeze, so that didn't help. I felt good in miles 5 and6 though. It's
all good... now I know where I'd like to improve for my next race!
