Talking Sub-30 5k
4th time's the charm, right? Yesterday I ran my first 5k in under 30 min! I've been shooting for this since my first 5k. It's so fun to track my progress like this.

4/14/07 32:31
6/2/07 31:36
9/23/07 31:04
10/21/07 approx. 29:00

This last race wasn't chip timed, but I crossed the finish line as the clock was at 29:00 and I was actually a few seconds behind the line at the starting gun, so my time might have been 28:something if this were chip timed.

Wish I knew exactly what I did right so I could do it again!

That's fantastic!!!

That's my goal for Saturday's 5k too, but I'm starting to worry that it won't happen with the extra weight I put on this past weekend (yes, 11 pounds in one weekend -- amazing, huh?) and my pulled hamstring.

Go you!!!
