Run the D.O.G. 5k

Today was the first of the five 5ks. It was rainy this morning, and the course had some hills which we hadn't trained for, but overall we did pretty good. There were a lot of "real" runners there, it was intimidating! We made the rookie mistake of wearing the race shirt during the race, which didn't help once it got soaked with sweat and rain. I felt bad about stopping to walk briefly in the middle, but I was just not feeling that good this morning. I think it was a combo of not enough sleep, not enough of a pre-race breakfast, and race-day nerves. After the race went to IHOP and I had stuffed french toast - sooooo good! Totally makes running worth it :)

Still waiting for chip time to be posted. They took pictures of everyone as they passed by - here's us!
