A Race a Month.

I officially have a new goal.  It started when I was down in Disney and heard someone talking about doing a half marathon each month.  I know that is not realistic, nor good for you, but it gave me an idea!  Instead of a half marathon a month, I could do some sort of race each month for a year! 


To start reaching my goal, I signed up for The St Paddy's Day 5k in Naperville.  My friend Lauren ended up coming down for the weekend, so she decided to run it with me.  Unfortunately, the race was sold out!  We decided to head down there anyways and see what would happen if she would try to be a "bandit runner".  I gave her my race shirt and she ending up blending right in!  She ran ahead of me because she is super fast.  I ended up being happy with own time.  I let myself walk up a hill for a minute which I regret now.  I am hoping to get a 5k in the books under 30 minutes!


Below if a picture from after the race and my stats from their website!
