Race Fest

It's another 10K under my belt....another challenge, and another practice in hill climbing. Jeff and I ran the 10K Charlotte Race Fest this weekend and had a great time. It's such a different feeling than a huge race like the Cooper River. We got there less than an hour before the start and had plenty of time to pick up our packets and get in place to race. It was fun. My time was within 20 seconds of my Cooper River time, so I guess I can say that I am consistent. The good news about this race is that a) I got a medal, and Audrey thinks I am super cool, and that Daddy and I WON the race, and b) I tried a new energy gel and it was much easier to tolerate than the cement glue-ish version of another brand that I had previously tried, and barfed in the sink! It's only 2 weeks away from the BIG race! I got all my miealge in this weekend by doing 4 today and am looking forward to the real deal.
