Unfortunately, we received an email about a week prior to the race that no strollers were allowed on the course - - sorry kids, you have to stay behind on this one. Thankfully the kids were able to go stay with my mom this morning while Derek and I did our little run. We are not elite runners by any means, but we do like to go for a jog...with the kids in tow of course.
Our results:
Derek's mile pace: 7:24, Total time: 22:57. Place for his age group: 7 out of 47
Janine's mile pace: 8:30, Total time: 26:23. Place for my age group: 10 out of 92
We are quite proud of our modest results. I have to say that my first mile was the fastest mile I've ran since probably high school!!! The little lady on the side line yelled out "8 minutes!!!" when I crossed my first mile. I was thrilled. The course starts off for about 1/2 mile downhill, then finishes with about 3/4 of the final mile uphill, with the last 1/4 or so downhill.
That last hill is always a fight. Yuck!!!
Great way to start off the new week....Happy Spring Break/Easter everyone!!!
