I ran the Monument Avenue 10K!!
It was so much fun. I was amazed by all of the runners and spectators. It's definitely a race I would run again. Plus, I feel a lot better about the half in 2 weeks.

My official results:
Time: 1:06:21
Pace: 10:40.6
Place: 11,808 (of 24,055)
Age Place: 847
Gender Place: 5035

I was only 5 minutes behind C which is awesome ;)

Soooooo it's been a long time since I've posted and I honestly haven't been running very much. I'm way off my schedule for the half, but I'm ready for the 10K this weekend.

After I got over my knee issue, I had a foot problem. It was pretty painful and hard to walk on at times. Finally got over that and I've been trying to catch up.

I ran 6 miles on a treadmill today (only time I've run on a treadmill in like the past 5 years). I finished in 1 hr. 12 min. with 3 walk breaks. I didn't want to overdo it since I'm racing in 2 days. I think I can finish the race in an hour. I'm getting excited!!

M convinced me to do another run tonite. Glad he did. I ran 3.4 in about 35 min. I walked for 2 minutes and stopped the clock for 2 stretch breaks.

Got a little taste of the runner's high again -- been awhile since I've felt that.

Knee, like yesterday, was only mildly uncomfortable. Hoping this means if I keep it steady I won't experience excruciating pain anytime soon.

Today I wanted to run 5 miles. I ran 3.5. It was a good reminder that I can't just wake up on April 5th and run a 10K like it's nothing.

The knee is feeling better and for the most part it's only mildly uncomfortable at times.

I need to get back into a better schedule with more frequent work outs if I want to be ready for the half in 6 weeks (eeek!)

Didn't run or work out Monday-Wednesday.

Ran about 3.1 miles on Thursday night. Took a different route so it was fun and different.

Tonight I'm going to do my strength workout on the exercise ball. Not sure what I'm going to do about the long run tomorrow. I have a busy day. Maybe I'll just switch it to Sunday.

We shall see...
