Training selfie, week 6! Taper week! A 5k race was on the schedule so I signed up for the Bloody Border Dash 5k (and Tom did the half marathon).
I got the BEST RACE BIB NUMBER.
Had a really fun day! John came along which was a super nice surprise, and he cheered us on and we all hung around a bit after! The race includes burgers and beer (at 9:30 am but whatever xD) so we got to chill and congratulate Tom on his 2 minute half marathon PR!
The race itself was really good, and about halfway through i started to realize i was running sub-11 minute miles - I wish i’d realized earlier and i would have put the pace page up on my watch and tried to push it - I missed a PR by about a minute, which is a bummer! No official time yet, and my watch has me going over a 5k at 33:31. My current PR is 32:10.
Next week back to the long slogs! Got a 9 miler next weekend.
