PRing at the 2007 Heather Hills FunFest 5K

PRing at the 2007 Heather Hills FunFest 5K

Here I'm smiling because I just PRed in the 2007 Heather Hills (church) FunFest 5K. 29:18! My first sub-30 minute 5K!

In the ending sprint I passed one lady. (You can see her in the picture) I had a killer side ache the last mile, and I was grunting quite a bit. I think the lady thought I was dying... LOL It was a fantastic race!

UPDATE: I placed 3rd in my age group! I had to leave right after I finished, missing the awards ceremony, (which I don't like doing) so I didn't find out till the race director emailed me the results. So, they're mailing my medal out to me. Just thought I'd update...

Way cool! It's so nice when that happens. Did you get to experience the sub-30 thrill over again?

Yeah, totally... And I think I will even more so, when I get the medal in my hands! It's stuff like this that keeps me pushing myself.
