37:09!

5K.. take two!

This time, I finished in 37:09 and ran the entire time! The route was about 3.25 miles, so my total time was 39 minutes.

Since this was a fun run/walk, they sent the runners off first. I couldn't believe how most of them just took off at full speed. I was a little embarrassed that I started off so slow, but I knew it would kill me if I started out at a fast pace like that. In the end, I actually ended up passing them up. Slow and steady wins the race. :)

Next up is the Turkey Trot in November. I'm not sure what the route is, but I'm really hoping that it avoids the hills... in Hillsboro. The route in Nokomis was nice and flat.

In other news, my new running shoes are still not in! Boo.
