I find the whole AG thing interesting. I had always assumed that naturally the younger girls would be first and so on up the groups, but it is certainly not the case here. When I did my one and only 5k race last June, the top 3 women over all were in MY age group 45-49, then a few in 35-39. I'll never have a chance to place in AG - there are too many elite athletes in that group.

Anyway, enjoy your medal Kimmy - you were there, you won - you deserve it!

I had some pretty sore legs etc for 2 days after my first-time-back-running on Wed but I did a second 5k run/walk yesterday and feel much better this morning. I did .5 k walk, 1k run again and it felt fine. I went a little longer on my 3rd 1k run and think I could have continued going for awhile longer but DH was with me and he's just started running so he needed to take it easier. I am planning to do .5k walk, 2k run in a couple days and then probably do 5k after that. It's hard to go slowly...
