TC 10k under my belt

Happy Monday everyone. I'm happy to report that I ran the TC 10 k yesterday's ah and for me it was a new personal best. Those of you who know me understand how happy I am about this. My time was 1:08.41. Not world record time by any stretch but for me it's almost 9 minutes off last year's time. To put it in perspective I have run exactly twice since October. 10 laps around the track at the gym and a run about 8k last Sunday. My focus in the last few months has been muscle building, not cardio. I have been teaching spin and boot camp but nothing really to do with running. The funny thing is that my pace was almost 30 seconds per km better between 8-10 k than at 1-4 k..... Imagine if I had trained. My next run is the KOOL half marathon on Mother's Day, which is the day before I turn 50. I couldn't have imagined being here from the couch 4 years ago! I have worked hard and I have had a lot of support. Must run now, even though my legs are sore I'm off to teach spin and another cardio class. Have a great night everyone!
