It's too quiet

Oh man, it's been over a month since I've written anything? What happened.

Well, I met my 12 mile goal. Ran my big run on September 25th. It turned into a 12.5 mile run. Finished in the dark, but I did it.1 hour, 51 minutes and 8 seconds, with an 8:49 average pace.That was really an amazing run. I'm glad I pushed myself to do this run. Almost 2 hours of running was a lot, but I didn't stop. Even when it was uncomfortable, I kept going. I had to finish. And I did.

So since that, I've run a couple of 5k races. This last weekend, I repeated the Haunted Hustle 5k. Funny thing was, I finished in the exact same place as last year, just a minute and a half faster. I also finished at the top of my age group for the second year in a row. I was very surprised with the age group win. Very happy overall.

So what's next? Nothing scheduled until Thanksgiving when I have a 10k. After that, not sure yet. I would really like to find something for each month. I know races are out there, just have to find them.
