How is Tim, Holly?  Hope he's OK.   I can't imagine that distance, yet.

I ran a really hard 5K yesterday.  It was a Skirt Chaser which was really fun.  It was pouring down rain and thundering at the start.  No warm-up because I was being a wimp about it.  But I jumped to the start and ran.  The course was hilly, winding, gravel, slippery cobblestones, puddled(practically rivers!) and I still managed a PR.  I have no idea how I did it.  I felt a little defeated in the end because my time was 21:00 and I wanted to go under 21.  AND the winner was 43 and ran it in 19:00!  She was fabulous!  Today I went out and ran 10K between to storms.  Now I am feeling inspired to keep training and do better.    I'm looking forward to the next 5K on a flatter course and I'm going to train on the tough course to improve my time for next year!

I guess I had the chip on the wrong foot today!

Blurry shot makes me look better than real life.
