5K----Start of Race Season!!!


RACE RESULTS:
Mike- 22:08 (7:05 minute/mile pace)
474th/8520 total
412th/3612 males
76th/431 males age 25-29 (FYI- the hardest age group!)

Angela- 26:28 (8:25 minute/mile pace)
1816th/8520 total
432nd/4908 females
110th/735 females age 25-29 (FYI- the hardest age group!)

Overall we were both satisfied with our times/results although we are certainly looking at this as merely a starting point to improve upon. It certainly was a new experience for the both of us racing in 25 degree weather wearing pants, jackets, gloves and hats while racing not just warming up!!! This was Mike's first 5k since 2006 when he ran the Carlsbad 5K and had a time of 22:48, and this was Angela's first 5k since 1998 (sophomore in H.S.) when her times were usually around the 22 minute mark +/- some! We are both proud of ourselves for getting out there and doing it though, after 2 kids and several year "off" from running this was a huge accomplishment for the both of us!!!!

Next, we look forward to our first ever (for both of us) 10k on March 20th!!! Wish us luck, we will need it to finish this one, oh and cross your fingers it will be warmer than 30 degrees at least this time!!!
