38:30

That’s the time I did it in! It’s a whole minute and 42 Seconds better than last time. I ran the Pine Beach 5K on Sunday, this was my second 5K, and it was excruciating!!! Firstly the whole thing was run on through the streets of Pine Beach, probably not significant to you but for me – we’re talking pain. (I’ve got crappy knees and try to avoid running on things aren’t a little springy.) Secondly – (the planners of this race are sadistic) the dam thing is all hilly, and at the end – when your exhausted (well I’M exhausted) they stick this huge ass hill right there in the last 2/10’s of a mile. It was actually kinda funny – I’m chuggin my way up the hill yelling and crying “this is just wrong!” to anyone that would listen. Overall I’m very impressed with my performance – I came in #509 overall (of 607 runners), #21 of 26 in my age group, #206 of 272 women. I was figuring on coming in dead last (I did almost no training for this one – I’ve been lazy lately) but I didn’t. I’M NOT THE WORST!! :)
