It was great! It was my first 10K so I was focused on finishing without walking. The 10K consisted of 2 laps around the campus, wheras the 5K was only 1 lap, so it was a little disheartening to see people cross the finish line to finish, while you are crossing for lap 2. I started off slow to run with my sorority sister until she stopped to walk around 1.5 miles, plus she was only doing the 5K, so then I just sped up to see how many people I could pass before I finished. It started raining a little around mile 5, so I felt like a real runner even though my thighs were screaming by then. It was such an amazing feeling to finish, the University of Arizona marching band was playing, people were cheering, and I could see the finish line, and I just had this tremendous burst of energy and looked past the sore thighs to finish strong. I still can't believe I did it. I had actually managed to almost catch up with my friend who was far in front, and finished 2 minutes behind her. It was a great accomplishment and I can't wait to do it again in January.

Thanks for asking!

63.77 + 2.75 = 66.52 BDW miles

[creoletexan]

66.52 + 4.0 = 70.52

[super19]

70.52 + 3 = 73.52

I did two miles today(well yesterday now). I think I sprained my foot though. Well I'm hoping it's just a sprain.

 

73.52 + 2 = 75.52 BDW miles

[creoletexan]

75.52 + 3 = 78.52 BDW miles

[creoletexan]

78.52 + 5.3 = 83.82 BDW miles

[**~Linda~**]

83.82 + 15 mi this week (@ 3 mi per day m-f)= 98.82 BDW
