Color Me Rad 9/21/13

 
Okay, so the picture is NOT pretty... but it's me.  All of me.  LOL!  We were supposed to start the race at 9 AM like we did last year; but I had signed up for this race before I started working out at Fit Energy.  SOOOO, I went to Fit Energy first, worked out for 1 hour... THEN went to Color Me Rad.  Last year Kyle walked with me, this year he wanted to run.  As much as I wanted a "partner" to walk with, he was truly excited about running, so I told him to go ahead.  He finished in a stunning 29 minutes.  My goal was to come in at under 1 hour (that would be a little less than 20 minutes per mile).  My time according to my Nike app was 1 hour and 1 minute.  Not quite what I wanted, but I do think that the start of the race I was walking a little too slow.  I did speed it up.  My second mile I did in 17 minutes.  My goal next year is to run the entire thing.  I want to finish a 5K in under 40 minutes.  I can do it, just not NOW.  Next year though.  Mark my words.  I WILL BE RUNNING!
 
And here is a picture of my little runner himself .... MR. 29 minute 5K ;)  So proud!
