| DVRRC 20K. Did it as a tempo run ended up running fast enough to win. The race started in Georgetown on a road that was not blocked off so had to dodge cars and the exhaust early. The course continued as an out and back on the CCT. Ended up being no water on the course luckily the Leukemia team in training saw how thirsty I was and handed me a half cup of powerade. Went out a little slow since it climbed 10K split = 43:45. No numbers for the race either so had to guess a little who was in the race as I weaved around people on the trail. The race results has me listed at number 21 think I was more like number 16 since other people training were added into the results as "unknown runner." Luckily my husband had to cups of water when I finished since he saw that was in short supply and wanted to be sure I had some which I promptly drank. Got a little sick on the way home probably due to both the car and not drinking enough on a seasonably warm day. Felt good just worked hard and did not go to fast. The two hour run just 36 hours before helped so I did not go so fast. No prizes, no food- part of the DCRRC low-key series. |

| Went to train with a group. Well... you know how this turns out I just ran alone the whole time. Some places a bit dark, but for the most part well lit the whole time so could keep a pretty good pace. Forgot my water bottle probably could have used some water after an hour of running. |
