5k Recap

On Saturday I ran a 5k (3.2 miles) and it was the best ever!!!! :) It was in Surprise, so I had to leave at 5 am!! Wow, that's early. But I survived it! My friend Hannah also ran the 5k!!
 We both PR'd so it was fabulous all around!!!! She got first in her division!! Whooo go Hannah!! And I got second in my division!! I finished with a time of 26:37!! And I got 9th out of the 74 women that ran it!!! I feel like on top of the world!!! About mile 2 I got the worst shin splint ever!! Thankfully it didn't feel so bad on monday! I need new running shoes so hopefully that will help solve my shin issues. ANYWAYS... it was great! So the last 0.20 miles I want to say (not really sure..) it was a slight down hill!! Man it was awesome!! I felt like I was flying!! My legs couldn't keep up though, I felt like I was going to trip! I looked down at my garmin and I got super stoked when I saw how fast I was going! No wonder I had the whole flying/tripping feeling going on!! Hannah's mom Jocelyn, and "my Mom" Missy both ran the half marathon!
They are awesome runners/people!!! They both got PR's as well!! Let me tell you best race ever!!!!!!! :) It felt really good and it felt even better to finish!!! I never thought I could do that as good as I did, but I did!!! RUNNING IS AWESOME!!!!! ♥♥
