Well, ok first off, this was a small race. I dunno, maybe like 40 people there and half were walkers? Not sure.
But I was like I believe the 4th one back.
And FIRST in my age group!
And I was not actually slow... This was the only 5K I've been in with big hills and rocky roads to run on(and hard packed dirt and pavement and grass...) So I was NOT expecting a PR...
But I did! 25:08! That's like maybe 10-15 seconds per mile off! On a hilly course! Woohoo!
There is a possibility that I might be able to pull off a 4hr marathon... Still a REALLY big IF there!
Marathon miles are seriously climbing. That 16 on Sunday REALLY tired out my feet and that on again off again right ankle, though they were considerably better by afternoon. Then again, I haven't cleared more than about 13.5 miles since almost March I think. We'll see how 18 goes this Sunday!
