My First 5K

I did it!  My first 5K is down.  I finished, I wasn't last, I ran the whole way and I conquered an unexpected hill. I will not say that I felt my best while I was actually running -in fact I immediately came down with a bad cold.  I never really felt my breathe even out to a nice place.  I didn't feel my feet lifting or moving with much buoyancy. Although the sun wasn't out I felt mucho humidity in the air.  But I am extremely pleased with my finish time of 35.54.  During my test run on Tuesday I finished with 38.11 and felt pretty excited about how far I have come.  I fact the weekend after I registered for this race I ran 2 miles in 30 minutes.  So, to push for two weeks and improve to 3.1 miles in 35.54 feels good.

I will admit that it felt a bit intimidating while I was running.  I knew I was running a good race for me and what I run but there were so many serious runners that I felt left way in the dust.  I overheard a group of guys before the race, all sweaty, talking about how they had just "run up from Cape Elizabeth".  As my mom said, this little 5K was probably their cool down. 



There was a guy there taking pictures during the race.  I learned that he and another guy spend each weekend going around to races just to take pictures which they then post for all to enjoy.  It seems my guy is a bit slow and hasn't uploaded anything yet but if he ever does I'll post an update.


So, It's one race down.  I told myself I would take a few days off even before I got sick but I'll be back at it soon and I think that I'll wrap up the season with a run around the West End that supports Reiche School.  It seems a little more laid back-people run in Halloween costumes-how serious can it be :)  But no matter if I never run another race or end up running a hundred marathons...you never forget your first!
