Hospital Hill 10K

So on Saturday I ran my first 10k It was 6.34miles. And not only was it 6.34 miles it was 6.34 miles of HILLS!!!! It was so much harder than I thought. My goal was to finish it in under an hour and my finish time was 59:38. I reached my goal, but it was a struggle from mile 4 on.

I started too fast and was beat after the first 4 miles. I'm a solid 9.5-10 minute mile runner, but i did my first mile in 8:20 and first 2 miles in 17 min. Then we finished 4 miles in 36 min. So the last couple miles were pretty hard!!

I ran with my friend Michelle, and she literally talked me through the entire last mile! She's been an endurance athlete her entire life, so she did great! I plan on running it again next year and hopefully enjoying it more.

I plan on doing a 1/2 marathon in October, one without so many hills! But overall I'm pleased that I finished and in the time I wanted.

Andrew and the kids were waiting for me at the end! I just wanted to share with you! Love you all, hope everyone is good!
