5K death race

i don't know what part of me thought running a 5K in 94 degree weather would be a good idea. it probably had something to do with the fact that the race didn't start until 8 p.m. and therefore without the sun. plus jogging is an integral part of my lose-weight campaign.

1.5 miles into my race, those reasons didn't seem nearly as good as they had a week ago. i thought i was going to die.

i can say this. i ran for some of the route. and i didn't finish last, though i was close. but ... i did finish.

in 41 minutes.

oh well, i can only get better. and i got this awesome long-sleeved t-shirt for doing the race.
