My first 5k? OWNED AND CONQUERED.
I didn't check my time on the scoreboard but, at the 2 mile mark, my pace was a 10 min 15 sec mile and I think we actually stepped it up on that last stretch.
The race was the Big House Big Heart 5k to support ALS. It starts at Michigan Stadium and ends on the 50 yard line. Runners enter the stadium through the players' tunnel and, yes, I imagined I was about to win an Olympic marathon as I raced through.
Times will eventually post to the website and I'm sitting here refreshing constantly.
ETA: Time: 31:37.63 Pace: 10:11 Whoo hoo!
This afternoon, during Chase's 4pm feeding, my sister and I finally tried out the webcams. So much fun!! Chase was totally fascinated byme the movement on the computer screen and I had a blast watching him. We're going to try to do this once a week from now on.
I can't believe it's 7pm, though. Where did the day go!?!
It's going to be a lazy night. Yesterday I started reading The Alchemy of Air by Thomas Hager and I think that will occupy me for the rest of the evening. The book is about the two scientists who developed the process of creating fixed nitrogen from air and the impact to the world (more food, more weapons) and to their own lives. It's actually pretty fascinating.
