Another 5K
I ran another 5K. This one was called Valley 5000 and it is based in Loveland CO. This was a very interesting race for me, because it rained the whole time. In fact by the time I got home I weighed an additional 6 pounds from all the water that my clothes has soaked up.
I was very proud of myself, because even though it rained and I was cold I beat my time by almost 2 minutes. My first race was officially 40 minutes and 21 seconds. This race was officially 38 minutes and 33 seconds and that was even after I had to stop and wait for the fire truck to move.
The next 5K that I am going to run is on 9-21-08 and it is located in Fort Collins. I am hoping to complete this run in 35 minutes or less. I have been trying to work out each day on my treadmill for an hour. During this hour I am doing a combination of running and walking, but I am trying to build up my bodies endurance and make it work harder and longer. I am hoping that this will help me finish my 5K in 35 minutes of less. I have about 3 weeks to keep up this routine before the 5K and I am also hoping to lose 5 pounds prior to the run.
