Senior Games NYS

[Peanut]

I am proud of myself today. I ran the 10k in the Empire State Senior Games.

I have never been able to do that distance without some walking and today I RAN the whole thing.

My time was 67 minutes and 50 sec. For me that is HUGE!

My goal was to run an 11 minute pace and I did just under that.

Goal two was to do it all running and not take a walk break and I DID IT too.

So even though I got a second place medal with only two in my age group I feel like a winner because I DID IT and accomplished what I set out to do for my own self.

A very Happy Mrs Peanut!

I wanted to do it BF but had not had enough time to prepare my feet for that distance. I wore my vffs.

I ran a 5k last week and stopped to take my vffs off and ran the rest BF> It was soooo much fun to do that!

I know what you mean, Spring does not give us enough warm weather for outdoor running to condition the feet.
