race results

While I ran a new adult personal best in today's 5K (23:02), I only managed to snag 3rd place in my age group. However, this might be my last race in North Carolina. By mid-May it just gets too uncomfortable to run more than a few miles. While some folks train and race marathons during the South's gripping heat, I prefer to not overexert myself, but instead sit under a tree and sip lemonade.

Awesome! I just finished up the Couch Potato to 5K training program in March. Then my kiddos and hubby and I all got sick for two weeks, and I'm finally back up to running three miles. I was just telling him today I'd love to run in a race in the fall (I'm in Maryland and it gets pretty hot here in the summer as well). Do you have any tips for those of us who are new to running? I love your blog, btw. :-)
