First Place, Baby!

That's right ... first place! I participated in the Lillian Optimist Club's "Run for the Mullet 5K" on Saturday morning and earned a first place medal!
OK, first place woman.
OK, first place, woman aged 50 - 55.
OK, there was no 2nd or 3rd place winner in my age-group.
OK, my 15-minute miles are the slowest for the entire field, BUT, I did finish the race in a record 47 minutes.
OK, this was my first race, so I can only get better, right :-)

I had fun, I kept my heart rate at 85% of max and lived to tell the tale. I plan on doing more races this fall. {Grin}
