Children's Center 10K Classic

Today I felt bad. I had been sinus infection kind of sick for almost a week. I decided to at least try since I already paid for the event and went out there. I sounded horrible, but still I was going to run it anyway, if for nothing else to at least say I participated. 

It was a brisk morning and the more I was outside the better I could breathe, funny how that happens. I was doing pretty good the whole way through. I didn't walk once, even though I felt kind of wheezy at times. I was a slight bit disappointed when I finished and it was only 6.05 miles long! I know that I only had 0.15 left, but I really didn't feel like making up the difference when I got done. So, this did not count on my Garmin as an actual 10K, but my time was pretty amazing!

I ran 6.05 miles in 54:54 with a pace of 9:05! I would have potentially ran the 6.20 miles in 55:54 based on it took me 20 seconds to run the .05, so to add 3 more would add another minute to my time. You can view my route here. 

I had a great foundation to go off of for my next 10K, the Azalea Trail Run! Check me out after the race. I didn't win any awards or place, but my time was great for me!

I love the handmade medals the best! Here's to the next workout! Until then...
