Firecracker

I ran a 5k this morning. My chip time was 28:34 a personal record.Unfortunately I don't think it was incredibly accurate. The first turn around point did not have a cone and I think by the time I got there the crowd had started cutting the corner some. Still I am happy with my time but it might just be a while before I'll be able to beat that time. I was 30th in my age group so I still have a LONG way to go to become competitive. It was the first run I went to by myself so that made it a little boring. My neighbor asked if I wanted to do an 8K next weekend, I'm considering it. I am also considering an adventure race in September this is what the info says about this race

Our first ever adventure race is not your average running or biking experience! Coed teams of three will test their overall mental and physical abilities by completing team challenges. The course could include: running, biking, canoeing, a rope crawl, tire run, a six-man ski run, word scrambles, riddles, locating hidden check points and more.



It sounds like a blast. The deterring factors are our bikes aren't exactly race worthy they are more like leisurely Sunday ride bikes. Also we would need to find a third participant. Well I'll just start working on my biking and upper arm strength and leave it out there as a possibility.
