8:18 average pace..... 5th in age group 14th female 67th overall (out of 326)
So here are my excuses for such a crappy time: 1. I played an 8 game RCOB- volleyball tournament yesterday after not playing for 5 months and as primary hitter and blocker, I jumped about 4,000 times and had to run from the server's spot up to block every time. I couldn't even walk this morning my legs are killing me! not to mention my abs, lower back, right shoulder, and neck. The fact that I even made it from bed to the bathroom this morning was a miracle. 2. The entire first mile of the damn race was short steep uphills, I considered quitting around .75 miles in and just walking home. 3. Daylight savings time.... probably didn't actually effect my run but I just need to blame it for something other than it being dark at 4:30! 4. It was 33 degrees out and windy at start time and my teeth were chattering at the starting line. 5. I have nothing else but I just feel like complaining! I did however win a $50 gift card to Awol Boston (never heard of it!) and I took enough fruit to pack for breakfast for work for the week!
