Hey toots,

Nice work - I hope you share this on the cardio board, too. You are at the stage now where it is very easy to reduce the time you ran dramatically. You are in my area - generally - and there are a lot of races like that in the area. Maybe join a running club.

It may encourage you to know that my best is about 20:00 - though I haven't tested it in a long long time. 6 months before that it killed me to run it in 28. Part of the reason is due to the guy who is my coach who ran it in 13:42.

BTW - Mike Castle is your US Congressman, not your Senator - though I'd like to see him run for Senate.

congratulations !! I went in a 10 k fun run last year. I thought I would just go and take it easy, but I didn't realize how exciting it was. I found myself running like a madwoman. Went waaay to hard and paid for the next 2 weeks with sore shins. *L*

Now that the weather is cool, I live in Louisiania,there are 5 and 10k's almost every weekend. I'm thinking about trying a 10k at the end of the month, just for the challenge.
