WELL! I did it! I finished my first 5k in 18 months. Believe me, I was really nervous about it. I was worried I wouldn't be able to finish, I'd run slowly, lots of things. But I finished! My goal was to run 35 minutes or less...
So for a quick comparison:
On March 29, 2008 I ran in the Just A Short Run 5k, my results are as follows:
Katie Cavanaugh, 26, Pittsburgh, PA 43:48 44:37 14:23A sad and pathetic 14:23 mile pace. Ugh!
My results today:
| 2504 | KATIE | CAVANAUGH | PITTSBUGH | PA | F2529 | 27 | F | 0:29:56 | 0:31:15 | 1450 |
I felt really, really, really, awesome about that. It's good to know all of my hard work paid off (btw - my time is 29:56, it's when I crossed the start - not adjusted is 31:15)
I'm just glad if anyone ever googles me - I'll have a faster time to show for myself. :) Proof that dropping 28 pounds DOES make you run faster. (Oh yeah and training for it)
So I'm super psyched about this!! :) Next race - the Great Race in September!!
