It looks as though it could rain at any possible moment. The wind is nuts. Our AC was out all night. I had very little to no sleep....but guess what....I'M RUNNING THE 5K ANYWAY

It's been six years to the weekend that I last did this. I ran in the Run for the Cure on Mothers' Day in honor of my mother in 2001. Ironic huh?

Anyway, wish me luck. I am very nervous as to how I am going to possibly handle these winds! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

congratulations, Christy!! I ran my 5k yesterday too. I kept getting up throughout the night because I had to go to the bathroom constantly.. I think it was my nerves. LOL\

Anyway, my time was 28.02. Not my best, but I am very pleased with it. In the last two weeks, I only ran a couple times and it was only for 1-2 miles, usually just 1. I stayed consistent throughout the whole race. I was really expecting to finish alot later time that that..

Anyway, I was thinking about you yesterday when I was running. Too bad we don't live close.. we could be running buddies..

Your time is excellent!! Keep up the good work!
