That's how I am hoping to feel this fall anyway when I run some more, when it's not so humid. Funny how you love the longer races, and i like the shorter ones, maybe because for me the "pain" is over quicker then! And that's an awesome PR! That's the range I want to aim for this year - to have that elusive "24" in the beginning of my time. <br /><br />Of course, I've never run TO the race to get my fastest times! <br /><br />So wish there was a jamba juice around here, i've heard nothing but good stuff about them.Terrihttp://tgorourke.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7918472490658203767.post-87125594033806182082010-06-30T11:32:11.333-07:002010-06-30T11:32:11.333-07:00I sort of feel the same as you about 5Ks, I know I...I sort of feel the same as you about 5Ks, I know I will never be super-fast (under 23 minutes is about my highest aspiration). HOWEVER, I have been doing a few 5Ks lately, as an antidote to the slow running rut that marathon training creates. Hoping that they will act as speedwork to help with my half marathon goals this summer.<br /><br />We went to that restaurant you recommended on the Oregon coast (at the moment I can't remember either the name or the town, I feel senile) and really enjoyed it! They no longer have the crab and cheddar sandwich though. :( Thanks for the tip!Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01325119755927336119noreply@blogger.com
