So, first of all....this 5k was AMAZING!!  It was hard with hills, and I haven't really trained for hills, so I wasn't trying to beat my last 5k time of 26:17.  I was the first girl to finish, and I did it in 26:44 which I'm very happy about!!!  These hills were never ending.  There was no break really either.  It was pretty flat and a little downhill, which was nice because once the hills came....they lasted a while.  I never stopped running though, and it was a beautiful day in Eagle Mountain.
A bunch of pictures were posted from the race.  Just for the record, I workout so I can look good.  I don't look good while working out.  With that being said....

It was a small race.  I think around 50 people ran it, and I decided that I really like small races.  No weaving in and out of people, and it was quiet.  Just how I like it, yet I could see people in front of me to guide my pace and the route.  I can't get over how much I loved this race.
Now onto my 10k training.  I altered my training plan a bit because my 10k falls on a Monday, so now my long runs will be Mondays.  I ran 5.1 miles in 45:45.  This is perfect for me.  Not too fast, but not too slow.  I need to really work on my speed runs and interval training this week.  I feel pretty confident that I'll be able to run my 6.2 miles in under one hour!!
Today's workout came from Lindsay lindsaybrin.comBrin and Moms Into Fitness.  I did the Shed 5 Fast Level 1 Workout but did all the advanced moves.  Then I did Lindsay's 8 minute ab workout you can find on YouTube.  Tomorrow is an interval run!!
Also, my husband and I are trying to cut way back on sugar.  His body itches when he eats it, so we're trying to cut back and eat smart!!
