My First Big Race

With the practice race out of the way I was ready to conquer the world.
11/23: yoga 30 min
11/24: 3.02miles at 11:45min mile pace
11/25: 5 miles at 13:00 min mile pace average - My first 5 miles ever! I did walk twice. I think I ran too fast in the beginning.
11/26: yoga 30 min
11/28: pilates 1 hr & 3.02 miles at 12:15 min mile pace. Guess I'm recovering from my 5 miles.
11/29: my first attempt at interval training. 4 8oo at 75% and 4 200 at 100% I'm not sure I measured right - I need to go to a track for this. 30 minute total body workout.
11/30: 30 min yoga
12/1: 3.02 mi at 10:34 avg pace
12/2: not feeling very well. 40 minutes on the stationary bike
12/3: really not feeling well. taking the day off.
12/4: I have the flu - I was up all night throwing up. I'm off until further notice.
12/8: 1.29 miles at unknown pace. I haven't run at all this week and the race is tomorrow. Yikes!
12/9: Jason (My husband) has the flu so I'm running this without him. Luckily his sister and her husband, Laura & Deke, had agreed to run it with us and they are super-bionic-athletes. Deke ran a marathon last year. Laura said she'd stick with me for a while before she leaves me in the dust.
I finished without any walking and there were some crazy inclines on this run.

378 JOCELYN GOLDBLATT F 32 Odenton MD 32:41 F3039 50

That means I finished 378th overall and 50th in my gender and age group. I ran it in 32:41 (10:30 min mile pace). I'm very pleased.
