I got the the start in time to see all the speedy half marathon girls run past the 5k start area. I did a 2 mile warm up and waited for the race to start. I was surprised how small it was, I was thinking it was a bigger race. Overall a good race for me. Legs felt decent but could tell they were a bit tired. The first 2 miles I actually felt really good but I faded quickly after that. I was hoping that I could keep up a 6:50 pace but I fell off the last mile. AngieB and Josse were there at the end to help me in which was much appreciated.

Ran back to my car for a 5 mile cool down. AP 8:26

Awesome time Ericka. Who do you like more, AngieB or Josse?

Um who do you think Burt?!? Angie is a super awesome cool girl but I'm her twin:). Awesome job in the race sis!! The last mile of a 5k is always tough, learn and live on.

You looked and ran super strong. I didn't know if jumping in and running w ya would bug ya I'm glad I could be of help. I love running in and helping people race way more than racing I think. That's a great time. You did great!

And don't listen to Burt haha.

Well, that's fine and all, Josse. But I think I'd like to hear it straight from Ericka ;)

I kinda hated everyone at that moment :p But love them both the same now!
