I WON!

Well, I ran the (5K) race this morning (thank you Dr. Allen!) and actually WON my division. I got a tshirt, a bunch of fruit, bottled water (like everyone else) AND a COOL plaque and ball cap. I couldn't believe it!

It was SO much easier than the 5K I ran last fall (my first) even though I've been down with a back injury and haven't run for a week. But when you stop and think about it, I'm 18 lbs. liter than I was then. That's like running a race holding 2 gallons of milk (and then some), but THIS time I ran WITHOUT the milk!

It was GREAT. I wouldn't say a breeze, I did have to work, but SO much easier than in the fall!

I'll run another 5K next month...
