Asheville Citizen Times 5K

A week ago, saterday. I ran my 3rd 5K, in Down Town Asheville, and I was awesome!
I knocked close to 4 mins off my best time.

I ran my 1st 5K in 44 mins (Asheville Chamber Challenge)
My 2nd 5K (Weaverville) in 39 mins
My 3rd 5K (Asheville Citizen Times in 34 mins last Saturday!

what's next! I will Chear my wife on from the sidelines in her TW8K (Thompson Wolf 8 K) in a week.

I'm a 5 K Professional, and if I start running more then 5K's, I might get crazy and run
a 1/2 marathon! So to play it safe, it is 5K's or less.

the best part about the 5K last week, was there was also a 1/2 Marathon going on at the same time. So while ruining my 5K (3.1 miles) I would see signs for the "mile marker 13"! It made me feel better about myself, running the last stretch, knowing 3.1 miles is nothing, compared to the people running 13 miles! I don't even think I get 13 mile out of a gallon of Gas in My SUV!

Any who, I had a blast, and I look forward to my next 5 K, and running it in less then 30 mins.
29 min and 59 sec will be just fine.

Your first time was just under 41 minutes, your second just under 36, and your third was just under 32.

Not that April's keeping track or anything ;)

And I believe she might be one-upping you this weekend by doing the 8k...for which I am proud!
