Really disapointed with my time. I PR'd by 2 seconds, but I had been training to get down to 30 min. The race started at 10, so it was already 85 degrees out. Plus Aunt Flo was in town. That did not help matters. I sprinted the last quarter mile and it nearly finished me off. So tired now. Someone find me an ice cream truck! Stat!

    So glad you finished and finished strong! Heat definitely is a speed zapper, but you did great!

    Thanks for the support everyone! I'm going to see this as an improvement. I finished middle of the pack this time, not back of that pack. So I did well! :-)

    Aunt Flo is ALWAYS crashing my races, she really needs to just take a hike :) Hope you had some ice cream to celebrate the PR!
