resolution run

This morning I got up early and headed out for yet another 5K. It was a gently sloping road race, with a long downhill the last 1/2 mile. With several u-turns it was easy to count the number of women in front of me, but I kicked hard at the end and blew by 2 of them for a 23:14 finish. I came in 3rd for my age group, but I really did well in the estimating my time contest. I guessed 23:15 and came in 2nd with a $10 gift certificate to the New Balance store as the prize. Since my footwear is over a year old, I know what I am getting for Valentine's Day: baby needs a new pair of shoes!

Happy New Year!
