As I've mentioned, I ran a 5k today, and I smashed my old and first 5k time. This event didn't have chip timing, so the time is unofficial, but I ran the 5k in 26:29. That is a pace of 8:32 per mile and a 2 minute improvement from my Love Em or Leave Em run. I think I could get it to the 7 minutes, but I would rather focus my running on distance to prepare for a marathon. But 7 minutes... that would just be awesome... no, no, one goal at a time.
Yes, as much as I would like to shave just over 32 seconds per mile on my 5k, I need to focus on my goal of running a marathon first. Oh wait, I don't think I've mentioned it on my blog yet - I've signed up to run the Seattle Marathon at the end of Novemeber. Yes! All 26.2 miles in one day. Wish me luck on my training.
