Ran in my hometown's 3rd annual 5k race this morning! There is nothing like knowing the course like the back of your hand, running into dozens of people that know your name & being cheered all the way throughout the experience. Probably most special was being able to enjoy the experience with one of my lifelong friends RLS & my beloved, hopeless-at-running father. Both somewhat new to running, but both willing to put their heart out on the line. Plus, my times are improving from the fitness disaster I first witnessed when moving to the Pacific Northwest.

Distance: .5 warmup, 5K @ 22:21, 2 mile warmdown
State of Mind: Smile on my face the whole time...
