road race season begins....

Tonight was the first road race of the season.... the 7th Street Challenge... It's only 1.8 miles, but 1/2 of it is uphill and not just uphill, up the steepest hill in town: 7th Street. It wasn't as bad as I expected, and I didn't finish last. A friend that I work out with ran with me, I think Kyle has retired from the road race circuit. No medals this run, and I finished at around 18 minutes. I'm happy with that. I'm not sure when the next race I can make it to is, probably June....

Good for you! How much did you training?

Didn't really train much at all, a month ago, I started running about once or twice a week - trying to increase distance. I'm up to about 6 or 6.5 miles/run, so a 1.8 mile run didn't seem too bad :)
