    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!

    Congrats! I know how hard it is to get under 30 so that's awesome!

    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!!!
