So a co-worker told me about this worthy charity 5k, and me not being much of a racer wasn't really motivated to do it -- except for the worthy charity part. So despite yucky weather predictions, I went ahead, drug myself out of bed and drove to this race. I kept asking myself why I was doing it, but something compelled me to do it, and I am so glad I did!
I met a wonderful racer, Sally. We chatted about goals and horses and running; we even exchanged digits! Sally ended up winning her age bracket, and I ended up getting 2nd in mine! I was even slowing myself down because I was fearful of my 20 mile run that I had to do the next day.
Thank you Marathon Deity! Big boost to the running ego (I know, it was a small race and my pace wasn't great), and I met a new friend!
