First of all I want to start off by saying Happy 93rd Birthday to my grandma!!!
Got up this morning and ran the Farmers Market 5k at Wrightsville Beach. It was so hot. Not a cloud in the sky -nor wind! It was so hot to me that I actually stopped at the 2 mile watering hole and got water. I never get water for a 5k!!!
My time was 26:04, so I guess it would have been a little under 26 if I hadn't stopped for water...but I was very thirsty. I heard some others talking about how their times were off 30-45 seconds, so maybe mine was too.
My first mile was around 7:48, and mile two I was at around 16 minutes. I was on pace for a really good time. But, the third mile, same as the oak island run, got me!!! I've really got to work on keeping the pace up for that last mile.
I managed to get 1st place ...but in the masters...ha ha... talk about feeling old! Oh well, I'll take it and my trophy :)
I'm running tomorrow with my friend Stephanie in the Bellamy Mansion 5k downtown...hope the humidity isn't as bad :)
