Race Day!

I’ve run a few 5Ks before, but this year I’ve been working towards the Toad Suck 10K. And wouldn’t you know it, they have a “Tadpole Trot” for the little’uns, so we asked Anna if she would like to run in a real race like Mommy, and she unhesitatingly said yes! So I ran my first 10K and Anna ran her first race on the same day!

I finished in about an 11-minute mile pace, which is slower than my usual, but it was hot and VERY humid, so my goal was to keep trotting along at a reasonable pace that would enable me to finish the thing on my feet instead of a stretcher.

Mommy and Anna!
