Running the 5K

A few weeks ago I signed up for the Nappanee Apple Festival 5K run. The race is now less than two weeks away.

Thanks in part, I'm sure, to the cloudy, cooler weather; today I set a new personal best 5K time, 26 minutes, 49 seconds. I bettered my previous personal best by nearly two minutes. Today was actually the first time I was able to run the whole 3.1 miles without walking part of it.

If I can just strip another 10 minutes off today's time in the next 13 days I just might
finish second.

Oh, and I liked it better when they called the Apple Festival's 5K "The Road Apple Run."
