Congratulations Mariposai! Knocking 4 minutes of a 5K pr is amazing! Nice job of the mental game as well, usually the harder part!

Awesome! 4 minutes off a 5K PR is huge! (hugh? Big grin

Terrific run, Mariposai! That's a huge PR! I like the way you broke that last 1.5 miles into pieces and conquered them one at a time. I think there's a kid named Ryan Hall who subscribes to that theory. Smile

Continued great running! PJ

Mariposai - a 4-minute PR in a 5K - wow, that's awesome! Well done, speedy lady! You sure you weren't actually using your wings? Smile

Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."
