The Human Race 5k

Waynesville, NC. Slight rolling hills. None of the course was really flat, but there were no steep hills, which was nice. Started out around 60 degrees so it was pretty pleasant weather-wise. Planned on taking it easy, but didn't do a good job. ;-)

Country Music Half Marathon

Nashville, TN! Our first (and likely only) half marathon (that's 13.1 frickin' miles)! Woohoo! It was pretty good. I could definitely tell that I haven't been training that much recently. Those last few miles were pretty rough. We definitely ran faster than we were expecting, which might have contributed to the feeling rough at the end. Lots of bands and people!

Race for Humanity 5k

Rainy day. We both didn't feel very strong at all while we were running. Most of our injuries didn't bother us. The half marathon next weekend is definitely going to be interesting! Same route through downtown Bristol as previous years. Didn't realize until I typed it in that I set a PR today!

Take Back the Night 5k

Run around Johnson City starting and finishing at ETSU. First two miles were mostly downhill meaning the last mile was mostly uphill, which was a little rough. The last half mile was entirely uphill. It was 33 degrees so it was a little chilly. Our first 5k in the snow! Nothing major but it snowed pretty much the entire race. I still set a PR which was awesome. This training stuff is pretty snazzy!!

Our first 10k!! - Reedy River Run in Greenville, SC

One or our most beautiful runs. Weather was cool, but sunny. Started in downtown greenville and mostly ran through parks around the Reedy Rvier. Wouldn't have had to walk except for the large hill in the sixth mile. Still kept a better pace than we were expecting for our first 10k. Feel a little better about the upcoming half marathon now.

Eastman 3k

Mom - 17:50
Me - 17:51
Dad - 20:21

It's been a while since we did much running so it was a little rough but good race to start back with since it was only a 3k. It was also nice that dad could run it with us.

Race for Humanity 5k

Mom - 30:53
Me - 31:00

This was a pretty fast race. We were expecting to die since it was the first race of the season, but actually fared pretty well. All the times were pretty quick. It was actually sunny and fairly warm and was the same course as the previous two years.
