First 5k ever! 27:02!! I had a one mile PR with 7:56!!!! I was super thrilled. The rest of the race was...well....it benefited a place called hillside. Enough said :-) It was hilly hilly hilly after the first mile, so I did what I could to salvage the time. 13th woman, which makes me really happy. I am trying to spin some of my long distance fitness into a few short races this fall. I think on a flatter course, I could maintain that first mile pace.... So excited! AND to top it off, my hip feels great!

Afterwards, I met a friend at a rock climbing gym, and I made it up a route I have been trying to do since July! It was a good athletic day for me
