#baa 5k

April 15 run - 6 miles. Race day again. This time, it was the BAA 5K. It’s been a while since I did something this short and fast, and I was pretty confident I didn’t have great speed in my legs. Still, managed to keep my pace a little under 7, so I’ll take it. Two tough factors in this race. First, the crowd is huge. When I was coming in to the finish, the last runners were just crossing the starting line. Even where I was, it was really jammed up at the start. Second, there are a bunch of 90 degree turns - 4 in the first quarter mile. Every time, you’ve got to be super aware of your surroundings to not run up someone’s back or get tripped. Overall, not anywhere close to my fastest 5K, but given where I am now, I’ll take it.

BAA Unicorn 5K

“Enjoy the moment.” Unknown Running or walking the BAA 5K on Saturday was a MUST-DO, undoubtedly! I was so excited to join Kurt for the 5k and get my hands on another unicorn. Kurt is the reason I discovered running. He drafted me to run the 2010 Disney Marathon with him, but he did not know that it would be a life transformation for me. Nor did he know that the registration cost would end up…

BOSSTOWN DAY 2

Golly I miss this city. Did a great little 4 miler along miles 23-25 (out and back, I can count y’all). Came back to my sister’s apartment and she had bought me some Blue Hill sweet potato yogurt. Very cool to wake up and run out the front door directly onto the race course. Of course, I used to live at mile 24 on beacon street, but I wasn’t a runner in college so it hardly counts.

BAA 5k tomorrow towards my 41 mile week.

Next April I'm gonna run in the Boston Athletic Association 5k - I'm gonna start running again and I'll train and I'll get in shape and by next April I'm gonna run every single step of that race and I'll finish and it'll be amazing.

New fitness goal - I want to run the Boston Athletic Association's 5k next April and by that I mean, actually register for it and then run every step of that race.
