Race Day

Saturday, July 25th was the Outing Fun Run. We have been doing the race the last four years with Eric's parents. Last year I decided to run it and realized that I was not a very fast runner. This year, I really practiced a lot--getting up early in the morning to run before Eric goes to work-- and it paid off. I improved by time by over 13 minutes. It is a 5.5 K race and my time was 33:12. There were actually people behind me and I passed people! I feel like I have accomplished something since I could never even run around the track once in high school. Eric got third place in his age group, Peggy also got third and Milt got second this year. All of us improved our times so it was a very successful race.
