Who says 92nd place isn’t a Success?
June 22nd, 2008 at 3:48am |
Today I ran my second 5K (I ran my first last month). It started at 8:30am and was at a beautiful park right next to the Mississippi River. The tall trees made a green canopy above but left enough space for the brilliant sun to seep through. The wind was blowing at the perfect speed and the temperature was very pleasant.
I did reach (and surpass my goals) of beating my time and having fun. At this race I got to see the results right there. I took 92nd place at a time of 29 min. 38 sec. and a pace of 9min 33sec. I ran the first mile in 9min. 15sec. I shaved 3 minutes and 4 seconds off my last 5K!! I’m gettin’ faster!
I left the race looking forward to the next.
