    First Ever Race Report

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Gearing up for some tris this season and ran in the Great Race of Agoura 10k this morning! Only the second time I have run the distance, came in at 1:10:57.

    It was sooo much fun! 1500 racers of all ages, shapes, and ability levels. It is a hilly route, some rollers and some steep stuff. But the last half mile is down hill so I ran my little feet off to the finish.

    I had to poop starting at mile 2. Haha that made for an uncomfortable run!

    I have gone from a "I hate running" to an "I can do this" to "When's the next one?"

    That's all ! Happy running!

    Awesome! Great work. I hate that feeling that you really gotta go (either way)

    Sounds like a first race to me.

    Congrats on your race! I'm at the "I can do this" stage and looking forward to the "When's the next one?" stage.

    Good job on the race. Congrats!

    I hate the "gotta go" feeling. Ugh. Glad you made it through.
