    Photos are up.  I've only ever been in one race photo before, and in that one I looked like I was walking and texting, not about to PR a 5K.  These ones are much better.  I am having as much fun as it looks like I am.

     

    Mile 1.  I little out of focus, but it is a floater:

     

    Mile 9.  Still having a great time.  And just about to pass the woman with the red elbow you can see, who'd been running close to me most of the race.

        Lily- You're so sweet, thank you!  Unlike you, I look better when I have a number pinned in front of the abs. Wink

                    Race photos aren't up yet, but here's the pre-race group photo.  I'm the only one with a number on since my race started 15 minutes before everyone else's 5K.  I think it's interesting that I feel like a midget compared to the others, and yet my legs are huge!  Maybe I didn't really lose weight in my legs because I was exercising through my weight loss?  Or maybe I'm just built that way?  Anyway, I wonder if it helps me as a runner?

                     

                     

                    Gee, your legs look fantastic to me! Big grin  And you may be a bit physically smaller than some other people, but so what?  Your big heart more than makes up for that!

                     

                    Congrats on your race!   So did your husband get a prize for successfully predicting your pace? Wink   You are gonna KILL your HM, no doubt in my mind!
