Once upon a time (it does feel like a really, really long time ago) I signed up for my very first 10K and I was very very nervous. Fast forward a year and half - and now 10K is my favourite distance. I am so comfortable doing this distance that there is absolutely no nervousness leading up to the race and no growing populations of butterflies in the stomach. It is with a wonderfully relaxed frame of mind with which I lined up at the start of Marina Runnerz 10K yesterday.
It was a nothing-to-report-about run. The event was well organized and I ran the distance comfortably well finishing in 1:08:35. PBed by about 3 minutes. The exciting bit is that when the results came out, I was ranked 22 out of the 225 women that ran. There right there is a Woo Hoo moment! :-) :-). I know that being the first edition of the race, there were relatively few runners but it still feels pretty cool all the same.
Time to sign up for Cool Runners.
