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!
