Race: St. George Spectrum 10k (6.2 Miles) 00:41:27

Total Distance

6.20

Surprise! I ran a race today. Updating from my phone. More details later.

*I haven't run in 9 days, but I registered for this in January and since my legs were feeling better, I came down any way. I decided to hold back a bit on the speed to not jolt my legs back into a bout of shin\calf issues. So I took it easy the first 2-3 miles. Then kicked it into gear the last 3 I t worked and I am not unhappy with the time. I know I could have knocked a good minute & 30 of this time, but again just went out careful.

So fun to see so so many familiar faces. And meet Christie. RAD and I got to rub elbows the first mile. She is so funny! Good day. Good weekend. I have been here visiting family since Thursday.

That's crazy that you could bust that out after 9 days off! I bet it felt like heaven to be running (as much as racing can feel like heaven, which is not very). Fantastic job!

You've still got it Lily....even with an injury! Way to represent today!

Way to get a race in! It's tough to do when you don't feel 100%. Way to play it smart and pay attention to your body. Hope you're in for a healthy, fun racing year.

From Bonnie on Mon, Mar 18, 2013 at 19:57:56 from 74.202.188.254

whoo hoo!! good to see you racing again, Lily!

From RAD on Tue, Mar 19, 2013 at 13:58:44 from 76.27.82.202

Great race Lily! It was nice to see you out in such good form :) Someday I'll keep up with your 'relaxed' race pace!

Way to go Lily! Those elliptical sessions have served you well!
