5 miles in 55 minutes and change! I didn't realize until mile 4 that it was important to me to come in under an hour. That I came in 5 minutes under an hour just blows my mind. I think a little more adrenaline was running just from having a number pinned to my shirt, actually. So now, I actually begin to understand runners' obsession with bettering their time.
The winner of the race came in at 31 minutes. I know I'll never run a 6-minute mile, but I think I can cut 5 minutes off by next year. We shall see!
Schedule now will be riding my bike up to campus 2x a week and running at least 4 miles twice a week, plus a cross-fit workout once a week.
Oh, also gained 5 lbs over the past 2 weeks. Time to address that as well.
But for now, Imma relax!

Congrats, Powerwoman! That's an awesome time, and it sounds like if you can put your plan into action you'll shave more than 5 minutes off by next year.
