Today’s Run: \u00a0Coca Cola Classic 10K \u00a0(6.2 miles)<\/p>\n
We ran the Coca Cola Classic 10K today.<\/p>\n
We have a ritual\/habit before any upcoming race to discuss the time we would like to “get” at that particular race. \u00a0My husband and I talked about \u00a0today’s race and decided that since we really had not trained for it (we actually had forgotten all about it until last week) that achieving 1:20 for the race would be an acceptable time~that was until I looked at my bib number for my last 10K and looked at the time from there. \u00a0It was 1:21. \u00a0Uh-oh.<\/p>\n
How in the world could we improve on 1:21!?! \u00a0There was not enough “wiggle room” to PR (personal record). \u00a0We would have to flat out run for the 6.2 miles. \u00a0No pacing. \u00a0No enjoying the scenery. \u00a0No interaction with the crowds and bands. \u00a0Just run. \u00a0Hard.<\/p>\n
So, that is exactly what we did. \u00a0We ran. \u00a0Hard.<\/p>\n
And we PR’d! \u00a0Our time was 1:13. \u00a0That is an eight minute PR!!! \u00a0That is pretty doggone awesome in my book.<\/p>\n
So, tonight we can rest the rest of a successful day and tomorrow enjoy the shiny new medals hanging on our medal rack.<\/p>\n
