10k Race!! On the Run!! Good Cause! HBCU



Me In the Middle of my Running mates

Hey readers, ran a get race on Saturday over the weekend, I know it is Tuesday, but I have been running and balance the Mommy time and  present with my family mind, spirit and body. It is tough but here I go with the recap. Had to get up super early to meet up with my running buddies to get a good parking space. The race started at 8:00am on time but it is a late time, due to it is hot and humid. The great part of the run was the sun stayed under clouds, so I got tanned but not burnt turning into a raisin. I had a great run I PR Yes!! 1:06:20 my first official race time for a 10k. I was pleased. I been working on my pace with fartleks and a lot of more miles to get me to a point of none stop running through out 6 miles. I would definitely do this race again. It is the Historical Black College & Universities. It reminded me of the movie "School Days" by Spike Lee, the post race party was great with Health Fair, Music and plenty of Post race treats... This was a great way to complete my run challenge I ran 109.3miles for the month of June and my 10th race for the year. I am challenged with  14 for 2014 challenge the Jill Conyers....
Happy Running!!!

On The Run!! Run A Fast Lighting 10K Race!!! Yes I Did On Memorial Day

Hey Readers, You want to build your endurance for faster speed preparation for your Half Marathons? Well lets talk, as I am preparing for my next Half Marathon, I have decide a Personal Record of 2hours and including as much speed work as possible with more miles to obtain my goal. This Memorial Day , I ran a 10k with a running mate, the route was very fast, various hills, and will build upon my training to reach my goal. Well this race on Monday(sorry for the delay), met that, it was small, organized, the route was awesome. I meet a few Full Marathoners, a barefoot runner and some super runner team. For me I start off stretching , and making sure my legs where ready for this consider I am recovering from a fall last week. I took off and my run keeper app was not working I did not know that till mile 3 and turned it back on. I broke away from my running mate a little to stretch out during my race to get a feel. Made it back in official time of 1:12, in which I was shooting for 55 minutes so I came up short by 17 minutes. So I must get that under me in the next few months. My running mate this was my first time running a race with her, and she is awesome, fun, and thrive on the run. My over all on this race, would I return back to do this one? I would next year, it was just right! Keep up with me I will share my progress with you readers to keep me and you encourage.
