First thing up on this long Memorial Day Weekend was the Tour of the Gables 5K.
Ran it with Mom and was going to run beside her to keep her pace but was so excited I decided to run it for my own time. Did pretty good. Knee wobbled a bit in the beginning but after I warmed up didn't even remember it through the whole race. Had a little trouble getting my breathing in order and struggled with it most of the 3rd mile.
After I finished, I grabbed a bottle of water and went back for the Mommy and paced her for the last quarter mile (which she said helped her tremendously :) She did a new PR on a race and ran faster than she has in her practice runs which helped motivate her a lot too :)
I am convinced both the Mommy and I should do a 5k every few months.
Time: 37:51 Overall Ranking: 594 of 810 Division Ranking: 41 of 50
