Dirty Girl Mud Run (5K)

Dirty Girl Mud Run (5K) - August 18, 2012

time - approximately 35 minutes (it wasn't officially timed)

the obstacle course wasn't difficult nor was the run. it was cold (55 degrees) when we arrived but warmed up to near 65 or so by the time we started running. it was fun. i won't do it again tho'... there weren't nearly enough obstacles between the running and a lot of the running/obstacles were in a field and it was roped off like a line at disney or something. back and forth back and forth back and forth. not too fun... boring actually. all in all it was a good experience with good friends and i'm glad i did it.

St. Mary's Bell Tower Run (5K)

St. Mary's Bell Tower Run (5K) - June 22, 2012 - First Race Ever
time = 25:53.16
2nd in my age group (30-39)
placed 33rd overall
11th among the women

this is the first race i've ever done and honestly i thought i was going to die. little kids were passing me all over the place. i thought i was going so slow so i'm really happy with my time. i had no idea how things work so afterwards my friend and i just went to the festival and got drinks and watched the kids ride the rides... i had no idea i had won anything until the next day when i sent an e-mail looking for my time. learn something new every day i guess.
