Another Race



I ran another 5K today. My goal this time was to run it in under 28 minutes and I wanted to have under a 9 minute pace. I achieved my goal. I was able to run it in 27:48 which gave me a 8:55 pace. It also gave me a good enough time to earn 3rd place in my age division. I also had some of the cutest fans cheering me on. Reagan told me before the race started that he thought I would win the race because I was the best. Check out the medal! Only in Texas would the medal be of the state.

  2. That's pretty fast.

    That Texas medal is cool, but it doesn't beat my trophy with a styrofoam potato on it.

  5. I don't know what John was thinking, I am no where near that fast. I think maybe one time I ran 3 miles in about that time, but my typical 3 miles takes me almost 30 min. (I do have a hip problem that unfortunatly keeps me from doing a lot of running.) I am so proud of you April. You look sooooo good too. You are so thin. Keep up the good work! When is your next race?
