10K Ready!

The weekend before last Bridget and I ran our 2nd leg of our Disney run so we can get our coast to coast medals. Saturday was the 10K ( 6.2 miles ) and Sunday, Mother's day our 1/2 ( 13.1 Miles ) Marathon. Friday I went down to check into our room and get my race stuff ready. Plus the kids were racing after my 10K so I had to get their stuff. When I got my bracelet I only got the Pink but found out they messed up and were supposed to give me the Blue and the pink so that I would get the extra Blue medal. So In all I'd walk away with 5 new medals!

10K run

This morning I was up before everyone in the house. For this run I didn't have to go far. It's been raining here for a few days and yesterday I rained most of the day with high winds. So that meant It was gonna be a cold morning. And it was. It was still windy when I left at 6am. By the time I got there the wind had stopped, mostly. This run wasn't a big one. Maybe a few hundred. They had a 5K to, which had more people. My goal was to finish under an hour and hopefully shave off some of my time from my last 10K. I did. However the last 2 miles my knee hurt so I could have done better. Im so sad. Oh well. I finished in 57:05. This run was way more long and boring compared to my others. No one on the streets, no water stations, and straight and mostly flat. Only a small incline at the mile 4-5. The snow covered mountains were nice though. I probably wouldn't do it again but it was fun. My next run will be In February in Florida! I can't wait. Oh and the last pic of the papers with names. It says I came in 8th place in my Division.

The reason I've been MIA is cause I was running...Of course, right? Fridays night I left as soon as David got home and headed to the Disneyland hotel where I spent the night with Bridget and my friend Armando. We checked out the expo, got our bibs, checked into our room and then of course waited forever to get into Trader Sam's for dinner. Bridget and mine's Tradition Before a Disney race. The race started at 5:30AM the next day ( Saturday ) so we got up at 4:30. By the time we all go ready we literally had the next corral pulling up behind us by the time time we got there. We made it in 2 mins before we we set to start. Iy was crazy. None the less I was determined to run the 6 miles in less then an hour. It was an OK race but I felt I could have done better. I came in at 58 min's. The Run was good. Lot's of people of course. They played music along the way. Saw BB8, Storm troopers, Captain Phasma, R2D2 and C3PO, Chewbacca, and a few other's that I didn't see but found out who was there after. Plus lot's of cast members having light saber battle's. Sorry for the blurry pic's, I didn't want to stop to take them so kinda took them along the way. Clearly that didn't work so well. Ha Ha...
