Today was my first 10k!! I was super slow, but I finished. I felt pretty good for the first half. I even ran the first mile in just under 11 minutes. No I didn't maintain that pace, but it was a great start! The problem was that I was dragging though the end. I completely hit a wall somewhere between mile 4 and 5. It just felt as if my body was saying "Ok, you're done running. That's enough, now". My time was about 1:21:33 with a 13:10 split. I didn't come in last for either the age group or the entire race (close, but still not dead last!) I even got an awesome Green Camo Print Nike Dry Fit shirt. I'd even do this race again!
