…what personal bests look like:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The little free 5k this weekend?\u00a0 The one we *almost* ditched because we didn’t feel like it?\u00a0 Because neither\u00a0 of us had trained for it (we had both run ONCE in the last 2 weeks)?<\/p>\n

Both significant personal bests.\u00a0 25:10 for me (which beats my PB ever by about 1 minute, my race PB by 1:21), and 32:16 for Zliten, which is at least a few minutes better than he’s ever done.\u00a0 It was just the right morning, the right course, and I am so very glad we decided to go!\u00a0 I felt like I was bookin’ it, but since I rolled sans garmin (or timing watch even) and there were no mile markers, I had no clue.\u00a0 I think that might have even helped.\u00a0 Just kept going as fast as I could and keeping green tank top girl in my sights.\u00a0 I even kicked hard and passed her at the end!<\/p>\n

The obstacle course part?\u00a0 Kinda fail.\u00a0 I finished the 5k, cheered Zliten across the finish line, and then walked up and found out my wave was starting THEN.\u00a0 I was already totally wasted from the run but I gave it my all.\u00a0 I rocked the sprint, the army crawl, even the rope wall, but I just didn’t have the hand strength to get across the longest set of monkey bars ever.\u00a0 I’m a little pissed about that.\u00a0 I LOVED me some monkey bars as a kid.\u00a0\u00a0 I knew my time wouldn’t “count”, but I continued through the rest of the 10 and finished in about 6 minutes.\u00a0 Suck!\u00a0 Oh well, I was so pumped about earlier I just didn’t care too much.<\/p>\n

The price I paid for a personal best?\u00a0 I really aggravated my heel again (boo).\u00a0\u00a0 I think it’s a no run week again, I’m going to really work on stretching it (I’m starting to think it’s a muscle thing, not a bruis-y thing), icing it, and look into getting some new shoes, maybe even from a for-real running store that analyzes my gait.\u00a0 I would like to have healthy feet again that don’t wuss out after a 5k.<\/p>\n

More of the normal Monday stuff soon if life doesn’t continue with the too crazy (writing this while loading up stuff at work.\u00a0 Yeah.\u00a0 It sucks.).\u00a0 Anyone else race this weekend?\u00a0 Any one just do something super awesome non-race-y?\u00a0 Think I look fierce there (ROAR!)?<\/p>\n
