santa monica classic

even though i've been uber excited for weeks about running my first 10K, i almost forgot to blog about it! (BLASPHEMY!) thankfully, i remembered as i was writing it in my INDD apple in the lobby of wooden yesterday. and i must say that i did quite well -- based on MY standards at least. my final time was 1:03:03 and my overall pace was 10:10, both of which i'm really proud of, especially since i used to (and still sometimes) say i hate running. the weather was a bit nippy, but it was quite nice once i started running. i must admit that i was a bit overwhelmed by all the elbows at the beginning, but i was OK once everyone spread out. the race passed by so quickly that i really don't have too much to say. except that i LOVED the shirt! i got one earlier in the mail and it looked great over my long-sleeved grey tee with my grey lululemon pants. so i was uber excited when i got a SECOND one at the end of the race! (for those of you who haven't seen me in it yet, i'll be sure to show it off again in upcoming weeks.) needless to say, i'm pumped for my second 10K in brentwood over memorial day weekend. i'm just praying and praying and praying that it's not too hot! eek! keep your fingers crossed, folks!
