I set 3 running goals for myself this year. 3 progressive goals.
Number 1 - run a 10k
Number 2 - run a half marathon
Number 3 - run 1000k in 2011
And yesterday, I crossed that first goal off of my list.
Yesterday Nick and I ran the Hale Freezes Over 10k. The 'freezes' part - dead on. It was 24 degrees. Chilly when we started, but so refreshing after the first few miles.
I ran 6.2 in 60 minutes - less than 10 minute miles. And it felt fantastic.
Nick the speed demon ran it in 51 minutes.
We took one of Nick's sisters with us to run the 5k, she's just started running and had a great race as well.
So. One goal for the year down and two to go. The half marathon? I haven't figured that one out yet - the where, the how, the why (!). But it will come.
