Run race 2:32:57 [3] 25.0 km (6:07 / km)
Run for the Toad 25 k race - 256/804 overall; 28/117 age category (F30-39)
The weather was looking less than ideal before the race started - verrry chilly, windy, and there was a hint of rain. Made a last minute decision to wear extra clothes which turned to be unnecessary because as the morning progressed the weather got nicer. Still chilly and windy, but the sun came out and it ended up being a rather pleasant day.
The run felt really good. Wasn't quite sure what to expect with having not put quite as many 2 hr runs as I had hoped I would and other factors, but as with so many things, the body can manage a fair bit on race day!
I'm happy with my time - it's a good start for my first 25 k race (also my first ever 25 k run - oops). Had a really good time seeing familiar faces at the race. The Toad is a very well run race - lots of volunteers, well marked, good food and a very nice finishing medal ;)

Run 30:00 [3]
Nice easy couple of loops around Bechtel park to keep the legs loose. Thanks for inviting me Funderstorm - it was a beautiful evening for a cruise.

Run 31:00 [3]
Although Tiny got off work early and went for a road ride, he still pulled himself off the couch to go for a run with me... and kicked my butt. Sigh. ;) We did a short loop around the park on trails - nice evening for a run... and heartburn... why must we run so fast!? :)
