The Merrell Down and Dirty 10k!
I did it!
I ran my longest race EVER today! 6.2 miles woohoo :)
And I took eighth place in my age group, out of a few hundred people!
I was pretty excited, because this race was done to prepare me for my upcoming triathlon, and since I did so well with a 10k, I feel as if I am prepared for the tri!
And the best part was that I got 6+ hours of sleep the night before, and overslept my alarm, so we got to the race about 15 minutes before it started. I barely warmed up, yet I had such a good race. I came home and ate like a madwoman even though I had a huge breakfast. I was SOO hungry! I have never been that hungry! I guess you burn thousands of calories...
PS- Thanks to my parents who were there at the race (with my dog!) to cheer me on and support me when no one else "could" (:
