Memorial Day Dash 5k, plus 4.13, & goofy stuff...

Well, where do I start? It was eventful to say the least. I managed to pull a 28 min 5k time with at least 3-4 stops during the 3.1 mile course, which was NOT flat. :( I had a bit of an upset stomach this morning so I ran literally on "empty". It was HOT, HUMID, & my heart rate was through the friggin' roof. I noticed first thing this morning that my right shin was inflamed a bit which was annoying, but hey, I got out of bed to do something "fun".

I got 2nd in my age group. Not many FAST women were there but plenty of FAST kids!
I'm not sure what to do with the Nashville history books I won...I'll skim through them & give them away, I guess....

Reiko pulled out 2nd in her group. She did very well this weekend! She doesn't want to go back to Michigan. (Hey, I can't help it if my out of state friends/relatives have too much fun & don't want to leave.)
Chuck got 2nd in his age group. He did very well this weekend at both Urban & the dash.
I won't go into the details but he's a complete nut. :)
Thanks again for guiding us through a few more miles this morning, ChuckEastNashville. :P

We added 4.13 hot, humid, slow, & somewhat hilly miles to our total today after the awards. Tom P. joined us & added a little more. While he was gone, we decided to get goofy with the camera.
See below.

Confession: I will be crosstraining my a$$ off tomorrow to work off the fries & milkshake I had after we ran. (Plus everything else that wasn't exactly good for me this weekend!)

All in all, a great day & so much FUN!!! :)

I'm blaming the heat & humidity for this... ha!


I want to go back to BB Kings on a Saturday night. Great food!


Too much food, not enough hurricanes!
