Race Updates!

   I have been continuing on my running path to that Half Marathon which will happen in September.  My friend Lisa and I have been running different races to prepare.
   We did a 5K on Cinco de Mayo!  It was so fun and of course included some Margaritas afterwards.  We were concerned of the "Hills" the race kept emphasizing.  Implying we would have to work for those drinks. Ha!  However, we had our bet time yet!  24:07

 Last Saturday we did our first 12k.  This race was unlike other races we have done, as in these people mean serious business.  We are used to fun, crazy dressed, loud music races.  Not happening here! To say we felt a little intimidated is an understatement.  Everyone, I mean everyone was in tip top shape.  In addition, the race was the hilliest we have ever seen.  Perhaps we need to prepare a bit more for these kind of races.  All and all we did not do too bad and finished with a time of 1:03.
