First 5K Race of 2010 . . .

January Race 2010

My goal for 2010 is to do a race a month in 2010.  I did a race this afternoon.  It was a rough one.  Remember, I don't train outside.  I ran in rain, ice, puddles, snow, and freezing cold conditions.  But I finished.  Not as great as my first 5K in October.  But I did a respectable time of 41:40.  I have to give myself credit.  I am not a skinny mini.  I don't train outdoors.  I don't have a training partner.  I am not trying to place first.  I am just trying to finish it.  I want to prove to myself and the kids that when we set out to accomplish a goal, we don't quit.  They were proud of me; even though they cheered from home.  I am pleased.  I am proud.  Now, I have to train for the Valentine's Race on February 13.  Wish me luck!
