Tracking my wanderlust need to get out of town once a month

Track my O progress here

This morning I completed a 5K road run at the Kansas Speedway. I had entered a long time ago; before Mike hurt his leg. I thought it would be fun for him (and me) to run around the track, and I hoped it would be a goal I could work towards. This was only my second road race. I think they're very boring.

I managed to complete the course, but not with out walking. I walked twice, for a minute at a time, at 10 and 21 minutes. I managed to finish ahead of a few people whom I had followed all around the course. But I'm way out of shape, so my time was 35:26.

Yesterday there was a PTOC meet at Longview. It was a runner's course, and crossed many fields full of tall grass. This kind of terrain saps whatever bit of strength I have in my legs. I was very tired at the end, and made mistakes. I was not pleased with my run.
