Running in the Cold and Making Plans to Do it Again

Yesterday I met up with a group of people I follow on Twitter.  We decided to brave a cold Tennessee morning and run the Jingle Bell 5k.  I set e new PR in my second 5k: 38:34.  Though I am sure it was a bit shorter than that because I was at the very back of the pack.  I have already signed up for the New Year’s Day 5k and hope to finish that in well under 35:00.

But that isn’t the only bit of running news I have.  So many of us enjoyed ourselves running together that we are going to do it again.  Only next time it will be a half marathon!  You heard me right.  I will be running my first half marathon on March 29, 2009 in the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon and Half Marathon.  Hopefully, a few of my Twitter friends will be joining me.  Training starts tomorrow.  Until next time, here is a photo of me at the race yesterday.  Big thanks to @suzytrotta for taking the shot!
