I may not be a runner, but I am racing every Monday night this summer. It is not enough to be consistent, I need to stay inspired and to do that I need to set ambitious goals.
Race 1 was a 5 miler at Heckscher State Park. This is about as far as I have ever run, so I am proud to say that I ran the entire way and finished in 52:30 - a 10.5 minute mile! Now, that is not exactly a winning pace, but for me it is great. The weather was perfect, the course was beautiful and I finished it in under an hour. At this point, I couldn't ask for more.
Next week: a 10K...ahhh
